Organic Chemistry

Molecules that contain carbon hydrogen bonds

The self linking of an atom to create chains and rings

Non polar

The temperature at which the vapour pressure or a substance equals atmospheric pressure

The temperature at which the solid and liquid phases of a substance are at equilibrium

The pressure exerted onto a solid or liquid by molecules of that compound in a gaseous phase

The lowest temperature at which it is likely that a substance will be in the gaseous phase

A measure of how easy it is for a substance to ignite

A chemical formula that indicates the type of atoms and the correct number of each molecule

A formula which shows which atoms are attached to which within a molecule

A series of organic compounds that can be described by the same general formula

Compounds in which there are no multiple bonds between Carbon atoms in their hydrocarbon chains

Compunds with multiple bonds between the Carbon atoms

A bond of atoms that determine the physical and chemical properties of a group of organic compounds

Organic molecules with the same molecular formula but different structural formulae

A chain isomer is a type of structural isomer where compounds have the same molecular formula but different arrangements of the carbon chain.

Same molecular formula but different positions of the functional groups or substituents

Same molecular formula different functional groups

A halogen halide (HX) is added to an alkene

A halogen reacts with a compound

Water is added ( addition reaction) to a compound

Hydrogen is added ( addition reaction) to an alkene

Hydrogen and a Halogen are eliminated from a haloalkane

The elimination of water ( usually from an alcohol)
