Organic chemistry

, Propane: C3H6

Butene: C4H10

Formula for Alkane: CnH2n+2

Formula for Alkene: CnH2n


3D representation of Methane:




Alkanes boiling points increases as the chain length increases. This is because more energy
is required to break the intermolecular forces between the atoms.


Orbitals

An orbital is a region of space that can be occupied by up to two pairs of electrons

- S- orbitals are spherical
- P- orbitals are lobe shaped

Covalent bond: shared pair of electrons

When a covalent bond forms, hybrid orbitals arise:

Single covalent bonds are sigma bonds which arise from the head- on overlap of s or p
orbitals.

Free radical mechanism
