Question 10

what is the functional group of an amine

Answer 10

amino group (NH2)

Question 11

what are the specifications of Amines

Answer 11

contain an amino group (NH2)
chain contains the amino group
amino group must be named as to its position

Question 12

what is the functional group in a nitrile

Answer 12

nitrile

Question 13

do nitriles need the placing of the nitrogen to be specified

Answer 13

no because it is always the first chain on the group

Question 14

what is the functional group in an aldehyde

Answer 14

carbonyl group (C=O)

Question 15

what are the characteristics of a ketone

Answer 15

contains a carbonyl group
suffix -one-
carbonyl group aren’t in the chain

Question 16

what is the difference between a ketone and an aldehyde

Answer 16

ketones don’t start with the carbonyl group, whereas aldehydes do, therefore the position on the chain isn’t specified in aldehydes.

Question 17

what are the characteristics of a aldehyde

Answer 17

suffix - al-
carbonyl group is attached to the first carbon

Question 18

what are the characteristics of a carboxylic acid

Answer 18

contains a carboxylic group (both a carbonyl group and hydroxyl group (OH and C=O))
chain must contain the carboxylic group
suffix -oic acid-

Question 19

what are the functional groups in a carboxylic acid

Answer 19

carbonyl - C=O
hydroxyl = OH

Question 20

what are the functional groups in an Ester

Answer 20

carboxylate O–C=O

Question 21

how are esters named

Answer 21

1. Alkyl group (contains the C=O
2. Carbonyl (C–O)

Question 22

what is the suffix of an ester

Answer 22

-oate-

Question 23

what are the functional groups in an amide

Answer 23

carbonyl (C=O)
amino (NH2)

Question 24

what are the characteristics of an Amide

Answer 24

contains a carbonyl and amino functional group
suffix -amide-
OH is replaced with NH2 in carboxylic acids
