All
organic compounds
contain carbon
They usually contain Hydrogen and Oxygen as well
A group of organic molecules with
similar chemical
properties is called a
homologous series
Carboxylic Acid
Polymer
Alkenes
Alkanes
Alcohol
Each homologous series have a
functional group
A
functional group
is an
atom or group of atoms
that give a compound a
particular property.
