Unit 3 Flashcards
What is the difference between structural and condensed structural formulas?
Structural is all the carbons branched to all the hydrogens and condensed structural is just CH3CH2CH2CH3

1- meth 2- eth 3- prop 4- but 5- pent 6- hex 7-hept 8- oct 9- non 10- dec
What are hydrocarbons?
Compounds with only hydrogen and carbon
How many bonds to alkanes, Alkenes, and alkynes have and what are their endings?
Alkanes- all single bonds, -ane
Alkenes- has a double bond, -ene
Alkynes- has a triple bond, -yne
Which has priority for lowest number the double bond or the methyl and Ethyls?
The double or triple bond
Name of a cycloalkane that is a square
Cyclobutane
What is an isomer?
Compounds that have the same formula but different structures
Example of saturated bonds and example of unsaturated?
Saturated- alkanes
Unsaturated- alkenes
What is benzene?
Is an aromatic hydrocarbon formed in a ring with double bonds at 1,3, and 5
It’s a hexagon (6 sides)
What is phenol?
Is a benzene with an alcohol group on carbon 1 (OH)
What is the priorities in naming organic compounds? Highest to lowest
