Chemistry - Hydrocarbon compounds - Ch 22
hydrocarbon
simplest organic compounds eg. methane ane ethane
organic compound containing only carbon and hydrogen
why does carbon form four bonds?
- :question: because carbon has 4 valence electrons, a carbon atom always forms 4 covalent bonds
alkanes
straight-chain alkane
branched-chain alkanes
branch out of the parent chain is called - substituent
the alkyl group
saturated compound
alkenes
unsaturated compound
at least there is one double carbon carbon covalent bond
alkyne
at least there is one triple carbon carbon covalent bond
unsaturate compound
isomers
- the compounds that have the same chemical formula but not the same molecular structure
IUPAC naming
refer to book - 765 or online videos
homologous series - if a compound has a constan increment of change in molecular structure
