According to the VSEPR theory, the three groups bonded to carbon atoms in a double bond are at ____ degree angles
120
According to the VSEPR theory, ____ are flat because the atoms in a double bond all lie in the same plane
Alkenes

triple

ethylene, functional group alkene
Ethylene has two carbon atoms connected by a ____ bond, and has two atoms bonded to each C atom
double
Ethylene is flat, with all __ and __ atoms in the same plane
C and H
Ethylene, in the function group ______, is a plant hormone used to accelerate the ripening of fruits
Alkene
Ethyne, more commonly known as ______, is the simplest alkyne
Acetylene (ON TEST)
What is the simplest alkyne?
Acetylene
Naming Alkenes and Alkynes: When the carbon chain has four or more C atoms, you start from left to right or right to left depending on….
Which one will give you the lowest number to the first carbon in the double or triple bond. Ch2=CH-CH2-CH3 is 1-butene and not 4-butene because going from left to right starts the name at 1 instead of 4
CH3–CH=CH-CH3 is 2-butene because…
because whether you start from left or right, the double bond is still the second carbon in the chain, and it’s butene because there are four carbon atoms and one double bond.
CH3–CH2-C(triple bond)C-CH3 is 2-pentyne because….
Starting from right to left, the double bond starts with the second carbon atom. Pentyne because there are five carbon atoms and one triple bond.
