Q
What is an amide
A
The molecule has a nitrogen and a carbonyl group (c=o)
23

A
Molecule that has a carbon nitrogen bond
24
Q
Characteristics of organic compounds
A
-bonds covalent
-many are gases, liquids, solids with low melting points
-most insoluble in water
-most soluble in organic solvents
-aqueous solutions do not conduct electricity
-almost all burn/decompose
-usually slow reactions
25
Characteristics of inorganic compounds
-ionic bonds
-high melting points
-most soluble in water
-almost all insoluble in organic solvents
-aqueous solution conduct electricity
-not a lot burn
-fast reactions
26
Properties of a hydroxyl group
-OH
-negatively charged (polar)
Polarity allows it to undergo hydrogen bonding
-hydrophilic (water loving)
-used to link molecules together; makes molecules more water soluble
27
Name 4 classes of hydrocarbons
Alkanes: carbon to carbon single bonds
Alkenes: carbon to carbon double bond
Alkynes: carbon to carbon triple bond
Arenes: one or more benzene like ring; alternating single/double bond in a ring
28
At room temp alkanes containing 1-4 carbons are?
Gas
29
Alkanes containing 5-17 carbons are ___ at room temp?
Colorless liquid
30
Alkanes with 18+ carbons at room temp are?
White and waxy substances
31
What degree is between hydrogens in an alkane?
109.5
32
What is an important physical property of alkanes and Alkenes
-completely lack polarity (non polar)= not soluble in water
-cannot form bonds with water molecules
| think oils
33
____ react with ____ to form dioxide and water
What kind of reaction is that
Alkanes react with oxygen
Called oxidation or combustion
34
Define benzene and arenes
Benzene: hydrocarbons in the shape of a ring
Arenes: contain one or more benzene rings; have odor, usually called aromatics
35

Found in fatty acids
36
Define amino acids
Molecules that contain both amine and carboxylic acid functional groups
37
