Define Molecular formula.
Number
if
atoms present
in
one molecule
of a
compound
Meaning of the empirical formula?
Simplest ratio
of
each atoms present
in
each element
Meaning of structural formula?
Minimal detail
, the
arrangement
of
atoms
in a
molecule
of a
cpompound
Why shouldn't we use the molecular formula to describe a particular compound?
It doesn't show the
functional group
or
location
, and only shows the
number of atoms present
Why do you think chemists may refer to a molecule as bifunctional?
Has
2
functional
groups
What is the homologous series?
Series of organic compounds
which have a
common general formula
, contains
same functional group
,
similar chemical reaction
Methyl?
CH3
Ethyl?
CH2CH3
What are side groups called?
Alkyl groups
