orgainc chemistry Flashcards
functional group
an atom or group of atoms responsible and determine molecules properties and reactions
hyrdrocarbon
organic molecule containing only carbon and hydrogen
homologous series
series of compounds with similar properties and same general formula
structural isotope
compound with same molecular formula but different structure
prefix
meth,eth,prop,but,pent,hex,hept,oct,non,dec- how many carbons
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
suffix
ane, ene, yne, anol,oic acid, al, oate, one- homologous series
alkane alkene alkyne alkanol acid aldehyde esters ketones
alkane
CnH2n+2
saturated- because contains no double bond- x not decolourise bromine water
tetrahedral shape
alkene
CnH2n
unsaturated because of double bond- decolourises bromine water from orange- clear
triagonal plannar shape
alkynes
CnH2n-2
unsaturated containg tripple carbon bond- reacts with bromine water declourises it
linear shape
alcohols
contains 1 OH group
primary, secondary, teriatry depending on how man carbons are present around the bonded 1
carboxcylic acod
oic acid
2 x oxygens- 1 single bond OH 2- double bond O
aldehydes
double bond to o on the end of a chain
CHO on the end
keotones
double bond to O BUT IN THE CHAIN NOT ON THE END
amines
prefix- amino NH2 primary bonded to 1 secondary bonded to 2 teriarty bonded to 3
amides
CONH2
DOUBLE BOND TO O
AMIDES- SUFFIX
ester
is formed in reaction b/w carboxylic acid and alcohol
OCO
oate- acid
yl- alchohol
halokanes
fluro bromo iodo chlror bonded to carbon
fuel
substance that burns in air and oxygen to releases useable energy
complete combustion of hydrocarbons
o2 is in excesses hydrocarbon completely combust
hyrdrocarbon + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water
incomplete combustion of hyrdrocarbon
no enough oxygen
‘hyrdorcarbon + oxygen= carbon monoxide + water
carbon + water
substitution reaction
alkane + halogen=
= haloalkane + hydrogen halide
reaction require uv light
haloalkane + potassium or sodium hydroxide
alcohol
addition reaction of alkene
double bond is broken and single bonds are formed
alkenes + hydrogen halide
haloalkane
