#12
Front (Question)

alcohol

Back (Answer)

hydrocarbon + OH

#13
Front (Question)

how to name alcohols

Back (Answer)

• take the alkane name • drop the - e • add -ol ex: methane - methanol if you see -OH its an alcohol

#14
Front (Question)

ethers (-O- in the middle)

Back (Answer)

• oxygen linking two carbon chains • structure: carbon - O - carbon • if oxygen is between two carbons its an ether

#15
Front (Question)

how to name ethers

Back (Answer)

• name the smaller chain fist • add oxy • then name the longer chain ex: CH3 - O - CH2CH3 - methoxyethane

#16
Front (Question)

aldehyde

Back (Answer)

carbonyl (C double bond O) at the END of the chain

#17
Front (Question)

how to name aldehydes

Back (Answer)

• drop the - e • add - al • ex: methane - methanal

#18
Front (Question)

ketones

Back (Answer)

• C double bond O in the middle

#19
Front (Question)

how to name ketones

Back (Answer)

• drop -e • add - one • propane - propanone

#20
Front (Question)

carboxylic acids

Back (Answer)

C double bond O + OH together (-COOH)

#21
Front (Question)

how to name carboxylic acids

Back (Answer)

• drop the - e • add -oic acid • ex: methane - methanoic acid • common examples: fatty acids, amino acids

#22
Front (Question)

benzene (aromatic hydrocarbon)

Back (Answer)

• C6H6 • ring shape • alternating double bonds • electrons are shared around the ring • very stable

#23
Front (Question)

benzene derivatives you should recognize

Back (Answer)

• phenol • toluene • aniine • benzene = aromatic ring

#24
Front (Question)

amines (contain nitrogen)

Back (Answer)

• nitrogen with a lone pair • can use amino- prefix • or - amine suffix • CH3NH2 - methylamine • if you see N bonded to carbons - Amine
