• Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons consisting of single bonds between carbon atoms.
• Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with at least one double bond between two carbon atoms.
• Alkenes contain at least one double bond between two carbon atoms.
• The general formula for alkanes is CnH2n+2.
• Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons, meaning they have single bonds between carbon atoms.
• Alkanes exhibit a straight or branched chain structure, with each carbon atom bonded to the maximum number of hydrogen atoms.
• The general formula for alkanes is CnH2n+2, where n represents the number of carbon atoms in the molecule.
• Alkenes have at least one double bond between two carbon atoms.
• Alkynes are unsaturated hydrocarbons containing at least one triple bond between two carbon atoms.
• The general formula for alkanes is CnH2n+2, where n represents the number of carbons in the molecule.
• Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons, containing at least one double bond between two carbon atoms.
• Aromatic compounds contain benzene rings, which have alternating single and multiple bonds.
• The general formula for alkenes is CnH2n.
• Addition reactions occur when an alkene reacts with another molecule to form a new compound, resulting in the addition of more than one atom or group of atoms to the original molecule.
• Alcohols have the functional group -OH, where O represents oxygen and H represents hydrogen.
• Alkenes can be represented by the general formula CnH2n.
• Hydrogenation is the addition of hydrogen to an alkene or alkyne using a catalyst such as nickel.
• Alkenes can be represented by the structural formula CH3CH=CH2 (butane).
• Alkanes can be represented by structural formulas that show how the atoms are connected.
• Ketones also contain the carbonyl group (-C=O), but it appears between two carbon atoms.
• Aldehydes contain the carbonyl group (-C=O) on the end carbon of their chain.
• Ketones are organic compounds that contain the carbonyl functional group (-C=O) between two carbon atoms.
• Methyl alcohol (CH3OH) is also known as methanol and is used as a solvent and fuel additive.
• Propanone (acetone) is a ketone that contains three carbons and four hydrogens.
• Aldehydes are organic compounds that contain the carbonyl functional group (-C=O) at the end of their carbon chain.
• The physical properties of alkenes include being less dense than water, having lower boiling points compared to alkanes, and being flammable liquids at room temperature.
• Ethane (C2H6) is a saturated hydrocarbon that consists of two carbon atoms joined together by a strong covalent bond.
• Ethane (C2H6) is a saturated hydrocarbon that contains two carbon atoms bonded together through covalent bonds.
• In substitution reactions, one functional group replaces another on the same carbon chain.
• The boiling point of ethanol is higher than that of ethene due to intermolecular forces of attraction.
• Ethyl alcohol has the molecular formula C2H6O and the structural formula CH3-CH2-OH.
• Naphthalene contains two fused benzene rings.
• Benzene has six carbon atoms arranged in a ring structure, with alternating single and multiple bonds.
• Benzene has the molecular formula C6H6 and contains six carbon atoms arranged in a ring structure.
• Carboxylic acids have the general formula RCOOH, where R can be any alkyl or aryl group.
• Carboxylic acids have the general formula RCOOH, where R can be an alkyl or aryl group.
• Carboxylic Acids have the -COOH functional group at one end of the molecule.
• Propionaldehyde (C3H8O) is another name for propanal.
• Alcohols have the general formula CnH2n+1OH, where n represents the number of carbon atoms in the molecule.
