CIPS L4M1 Question and Answers 2024 with complete solution

what is a major difference between organic and inorganic compounds? - CORRECT ANSWER - organic contain carbon what is the reason why there are so many organic compounds? - CORRECT ANSWER - carbon atoms can form stable covalent bonds with other carbon atoms the vast number of organic compounds is due to the unique chemistry of carbon. this chemistry involves - CORRECT ANSWER - formation of long chains& isomerism Which applies to the manner in which carbon bonds in alkanes? - CORRECT ANSWER - the bonds are formed with carbon using an sp3 configuration functional groups are - CORRECT ANSWER - to organic chem as polyatomic ions are to inorganic chem, are chemically bound to each other in order to develop larger molecules the alkanes represent one family of organic compounds - CORRECT ANSWER - that is composed of carbon and hydrogen formulas of organic compounds - CORRECT ANSWER - CH3CH2COOH, CH3CH2OH, CH3CH3CH3 which is an alcohol - CORRECT ANSWER - CH3CH2OH what is meant by the term "saturated" when describing hydrocarbons - CORRECT ANSWER - they are saturated with hydrogen and only have single bonds between carbons correct statements on the naming of organic compounds - CORRECT ANSWER - many compounds have been known long enough to have common names, the naming system of organic compounds is set by IUPAC rules, & the naming system requires that the longest carbon chain must always be found cycloalkanes are - CORRECT ANSWER - NOT: compounds that have a flat molecular structure, saturated hydrocarbons, or compounds that cannot have hydrogens removed and replaced by chlorine which of the following term applies to the alkanes - CORRECT ANSWER - hydrophobic what is a characteristic shared by the alkanes - CORRECT ANSWER - flammable
