Isomers that are mirror images of each other


What is a cis-trans isomer?


Isomers that have the same covalent bonds but differ in spatial arrangements


What is a structural isomer?


Isomers that have different covalent arrangements of their atoms


How does carbon skeleton variation contribute to the diversity and complexity of organic molecules?


In an organic compound, a carbon atom could be bonded to as many as 4 other carbon atoms.



Carbon atoms also readily form double and triple bonds.


How do carbon skeletons vary?


Length, branching, double bond position, presence of rings

, Why are hydrocarbon molecules hydrophobic?

resulting in no positive or negative charges, which prevents them from interacting with polar water

molecules


What are hydrocarbons?


Organic molecules consisting of only carbon and hydrogen


How does carbon's electron configuration account for its ability to form large, complex, and diverse

organic molecules?


Carbon has four valence electrons, which allows it to form four covalent bonds with a variety of atoms


What are the effects of acid precipitation?


Kills vegetation, dissolves marble and limestone


What is the cause of acid precipitation?


The mixing of different pollutants with water in the air


What is acid precipitation?


Precipitation with a pH lower than 5.6


What is pH?
