Flashcards : Organic Hydrocarbon Fundamentals — 20 cartes

Organic compounds only from living organisms.

Disproved vitalism by making urea from inorganic materials.

Atoms of the same element bond to form chains and rings.

Study of carbon compounds excluding certain oxides and salts.

Covalent bonds with shared electron pairs and lone pairs.

Covalent bonds between atoms with dashes for bonds.

Structural formula by omitting some bond dashes.

Zig-zag lines for C–C bonds; atoms implied.

Cyclic compounds with corners as carbons and sides as bonds.

Only carbon and hydrogen atoms.

Alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, non-aromatic.

Contain benzene rings with delocalized electrons.

Only single bonds, maximum hydrogens.

Double or triple bonds, fewer hydrogens.

Same functional group, differing by –CH2– units.

Alkanes, chemically inert, little reactivity.

CnH2n+2.

Indicate chain structure and branching pattern.

C6H6 with delocalized π-electrons.
