Elaborate the Bonding Characteristics of the Carbon Atom
C-atom always makes total of 4bonds
The sharing of 4 valence electrons require the formation of 4 covalent bonds w/c are represented by 4 lines
are groups of atoms in organic molecules, that are responsible for the _____, _____ ______ of the _____.
Functional Groups
characteristics
chemical reactions of the molecules
contain the same functional group in their structure can be expected to >react in similar ways
Simple Molecules
may contain one or more functional group w/in their structure
More//Complicated Molecules
are systematic references to the functional groups w/in the molecule
Names of Organic Molecules
compound that contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms
Hydrocarbon
compound that contains carbon and hydrogen and one or more additional elements
Hydrocarbon derivatives
hydrocarbon w/ ALL carbon-carbon bonds are SINGLE bonds.
Saturated hydrocarbon
hydrocarbon w/ one or more carbon-carbon multiple bonds (double bonds, triple bonds, or both)
Unsaturated Hydrocarbon
