Exam Questions and Answers

alkanes - ANSWER--a hydrocarbon in which there are only single covalent bonds

-the carbon atoms in this molecule can be arranged in a straight chain or in a chain that
has branches



alkenes - ANSWER--hydrocarbons that contain one or more carbon-carbon double
covalent bonds

-at least one carbon-carbon bond in this molecule is a double covalent bond

-other boys may be single carbon-carbon bonds and carbon-hydrogen bonds



alkynes - ANSWER--triple covalent bonds



substituent - ANSWER--an atom or group of atoms that can take the place of a
hydrogen atom on a parent hydrocarbon molecule



condensed structural formula - ANSWER--some bonds and/or atoms are left out of the
structural formula



structural formula - ANSWER--a chemical formula showing the linkage of the atoms in
the molecule diagrammatically



molecular formula - ANSWER--expression of the number and type of atoms that are
present in a single molecule of a substance



structural isomer - ANSWER--compounds that have the same molecular formula, but
the atoms are joined together in a different order

-differ in physical properties such as boiling and melting points

, -different chemical reactivities



geometric isomer - ANSWER--have atoms joined in the same order, but differ in the
orientation of groups around a double bond

-trans or cis configuration



stereoisomers - ANSWER--molecules in which the atoms are joined in the same order,
but the positions of the atoms in space are different

-the two different types are geometric and optical



asymmetric carbon - ANSWER--a carbon with four different atoms or groups attached

-central carbon



trans configuration - ANSWER--the methyl groups are on the same side of the double
bond

-geometric isomer

-lays flat

-IMF's are higher because the attraction is stronger



cis configuration - ANSWER--the methyl groups are on opposite sides of the double
bond

-geometric isomer

-a lot of extra space

-easier to pull apart because of low IMF



cycloalkanes - ANSWER--an alkane has a cyclic or ring structure

-there are no end carbon atoms



enatomers - ANSWER--mirror-images but they aren't the same

-different structure
