hydrocarbon compound where atoms only form single bonds with other carbon atoms
alkanes
hydrocarbon compounds which have double bonds between carbon atoms
alkenes
hydrocarbon compounds which have triple bonds between carbon atoms
alkynes
group of organic compounds where a carbon atom is bonded to a carbonyyl group
carbonyl compounds
explain flammability
the property of a substance that describes how easily it burns
organic compounds which primarily consist of carbon and hydrogen atoms
hydrocarbons
explain viscosity
viscosity is the property of a fluid that describes a substance’s resistance to flow or deformation
describe volatility
the property that describes how a substance easily evaporates
how many bonds can carbon form?
3 bonds
what type of hydrocarbon is acetylene (ethyne)
alkyne
which atomic model described the atom as mostly empty space?
rutherford’s nuclear atomic model
which atomic model describes atoms like a solar system where the electron is found only in specific orbits?
bohr’s atomic model
which atomic model states each electron carries and does not lose or gain energy as long as they stay in their given orbit?
bohr’s atomic model
who formulated a mathematical equation that describes electron behavior?
schrodinger the cat murderer
the region of space in which there is a high probability of finding the electron in an atom
atomic orbital
an imaginary representation of electrons rapidly changing position around the nucleus
electron cloud
the distribution of electrons within the orbitals of the atoms of an element
electron configuration
any electron configuration of an atom/molecule other than the lowest energy state
excited state
explain the exclusion principle developed by Wolfgang
no two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers
the electron configuration of an atom or ion that is lowest in energy
ground state
a number that specifies a property of an orbital or an electron
quantum number
what is the role of valence electrons in an atom?
they are directly involved in chemical bonding
what is the lewis symbol?
symbol of element and dots which represent the number of valence electrons of an atom that can be easily determined through the number in the periodic table
why do atoms form bonds with each other?
to become stable and attain the electronic configuration of the noble gas nearest it
