Question 2

Hydrocarbons

Answer 2

Compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms only

Question 3

Homologous series

Answer 3

A series of similar compounds have the same functional group and have the same general formula in which each number differs from the previous one by a single CH2 unit

Question 4

Answer 7

A chemical reaction where a substance burns in oxygen and releases energy and a gas

Question 8

Esterification reaction

Answer 8

When a carboxylic acid reacts with an alcohol to form an ester. The reaction catalyzed concentrated sulfuric acid

Question 9

Structural isomer

Answer 9

Compounds with the same molecular formula but different structural formula

Question 10

Van der waals forces

Answer 10

Weak intermolecular forces in organic chemistry the weakest type is London forces (dispersion forces) and the stronger type dipole dipole forces

Question 11

Hydrogen bonding forces

Answer 11

Strong intermolecular forces found between NH three and H2O and HF molecules also found between molecules of alcohol and molecules of carboxylic acids in organic chemistry
