  • Are saturated open/close chain hydrocarbons containing Carbon - carbon single bonds.
    alkanes
  • Are unsaturated hydrocarbons containing C-C double bond
    alkenes
  • Are unsaturated hydrocarbons containing triple bond
    alkynes
  •  Aromatic hydrocarbons are also known as
    arenes
  • Since most of them possess pleasant odour (Greek; aroma meaning pleasant smelling), the class of compounds was named as 
    aromatic compounds
  •  Alkanes, also known as
    paraffins
  •  Alkenes are also known as_means oil forming
    olefins
  • Due to this double bond characteristic, there are 2 possible structural isomers of alkenes
    cis (Z) and trans (E) isomers
  • Are special conjugated alkene compounds whose molecules contain two carbon-carbon double bonds separated by a single bond.
    dienes
  • Benzene was isolated by
    Michael Faraday
  • The two-electron bond, which is illustrated by the carbon-hydrogen bonds in methane or ethane and the carbon-carbon bond in ethane, is called a
    single bond
  • According to _ a compound is particularly stable if all of its bonding molecular orbitals are filled with paired electrons
    Huckels Molecular Orbital Theory
  • What are the examples of aromatic compounds
    naphthalene, furan, indole, pyridine, tropylium ion, cyclopentadienyl anion
  • According to _, the concept of oscillating double bonds in benzene is now explained by resonance.
    Valence Bond Theory
  • What are the 3 types of dienes
    isolated diene, conjugated diene, cumulated diene
