Module 6 None-Metallic Materials Objective One Flashcards
Organic Compounds: Solubility
in non-polar solvents
Inorganic compounds: solubility
in polar solvents (water, acids, bases)
Organic compounds: Phase
Gases/liquids/low melting point solids
Inorganic compounds: Phase
generally solids with high melting points
Organic compounds: type of bonding
usually covalent within molecules and static/polar between molecules
Inorganic compounds: type of bonding
usually Ionic
Hydrocarbons
only carbon and hydrogen atoms
Alkanes
single carbon-carbon bonds only C-C “ane”
Alkenes
at least one double bond C=C “ene”
Alkynes
at least one triple bond
-CC- “yne”
Aromatics
Benzene derivatives
Saturated bonds
when C-C bonds in a compound are all single (each carbon is attached to four distinct atoms)
Unsaturated bonds
organic compounds that have double or triple C=C CC bonds
Polyunsaturated
multiple double bonds present in a compound
meth
one
eth
two
pro
three
but
four
pent
five
hex
six
hept
seven
oct
eight
non
nine
dec
ten
Combustion Reactions
alkanes & oxygen, produces CO2 H20 and heat
Substitution Reactions
when one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by other atoms
halogenated
when alkanes are exposed to halogen in sunlight or high temperatures
dehydrogenation reaction
one hydrogen atom is removed and the hydrocarbon becomes unsaturated
Cracking
used in petroleum refining to break high molecular mass hydrocarbons into light hydrocarbon molecules
Hydrocarbon derivatives
have additional elements besides carbon and hydrogen. Grouped into “functional groups”
halohydrocarbons
-X(F,Cl,Br,I) one halide bonded on
alcohols
-OH, a hydroxide bonded on
eithers
-O- one oxygen bonded between hydrocarbon chains
Aldehydes
an endpoint with a carbon atom single bonded to hydrogen, and double bonded to one oxygen atom
Ketones
a single carbon in the middle of a hydrocarbon chain double bonded to a oxygen atom
carboxylic acids
the carbon at the end of a chain, doubled bonded to an oxygen atom, and single bonded to a hydroxide
esters
a middle carbon in a hydrocarbon chain thats double bonded to one oxygen atom, and subsequently single bonded to another oxygen atom
Arrines
a hydrocarbon chain ended with an azanide -NH2
