Science Midterm Chapter 14 Flashcards
All hydrocarbon will contain
Hydrogen and Carbon
Methane ends in -ane because
Only single bonds are present
The following are forms of pure carbon
Graphite, Diamond, and Fullerene
Butane and Isobutane have the same molecular formula and the same ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen but different structural formulas because they are
Isomers
Hydrocarbons can form 3 different chains
Straight, Branched, and Rings
Hydrocarbons contain at least one double bond and all other single bonds is called an
alkene
An unsaturated hydrocarbon contains at least one or more double or triple bonds. If it contains a triple bond it is referred to as an
alkyne
The 10 root words used to name hydrocarbons are based on the
of carbon atoms in longest chain
If a hydrocarbon has a ring chain structure, it will get the prefix
cyclo
In the functional groups, Hydroxyl groups will substitute a hydrogen with
-OH
The halide group uses what types of elements to substitute for hydrogen
halogens
The carboxyl group replaces a hydrogen with this substitute and makes it an acid
COOH
What is the process of joining monomers with polymers
Polymerization
How should you describe the molecular shape that is not linear or planar
tetrahedral
Sugars, starches, and cellulose are the biological molecule’s we call
carbohydrates
