Organic Chemistry Part 1
, 26. Define a homologous series
a. A series of compounds of the same family, with the same general formula,
which differ from each other by a common structural unit, e.g. CH2
27. Define hydrocarbons
a. A compound containing only hydrogen and carbon atoms
28. Explain saturated and unsaturated
a. Saturated:containing single C-C bonds only vs Unsaturated: compounds
contain double or triple carbon bonds
29. Name the functional groups for alkane, alkene, alkyne
a. Alkane: Alkyl
b. Alkene: Alkenyl
c. Alkyne: Alkynyl
30. State the general formula for alkane, alkene, alkyne
a. Alkane: CnH2n+2
b. Alkene: CnH2n
c. Alkyne: CnH2n-2
31. Define a functional group
a. Group of atoms responsible for the characteristics of a compound (reactive
part of a compound)
32. Which part is the ‘reactive’ part of the molecule?
a. Functional group
33. Define aliphatic molecules, alicyclic molecules, and aromatic molecules
a. Aliphatic: compounds with carbon and hydrogen atoms joined in straight or
branched chains
b. Alicyclic: Compounds arranged in non-aromatic rings
c. Aromatic: Compounds containing a benzene ring; aromatic, unsaturated
hydrocarbon
34. Name the ways to represent formulae
a. Structural, molecular, skeletal, empirical
i. Condensed structural formula: CH3CH2CH2CH3 (instead of displaying
the bond)
35. How to express the structural formula of a double-bond?
a. 2 lines
36. How to express branches in structural formulae?
a. Brackets
37. How to show branches in skeletal formulae? (methyl vs ethyl branches?)
a. Add one line for methyl, for ethyl add 2 lines (bent)
38. Define structural isomers
a. Compounds with the same molecular formula but different arrangement of
atoms/different structural formulae
39. Define alkanes
a. Saturated (only single C-C bonds) hydrocarbons w the general formula
CnH2n+2
40. Trends/characteristics of physical properties of alkanes?
a. Insoluble in water or aqueous solutions (because alkanes = non-polar, as C-H
bond’s polarity is negligible -> alkanes therefore cannot form bonds with H2O;
but are soluble in organic solvents)
b. Low melting point and boiling point (BP increases with chain length, because
longer chains = more C = more electrons + more contact area between
molecule -> stronger London forces
