Flashcards

Alkynes

Hydrocarbons with a carbon-carbon triple bond.

Polystyrene

A type of plastic used in many products, like thermocol.

Why does Carbon form so many compounds?

The ability of carbon to form very large and complex structures, leading to a vast number of compounds.

Covalent bond

A bond formed by sharing electron pairs between two atoms. This is an attraction between two non-metals.

Study Notes

Carbon Compounds - Test 2

  • Q1 A) Unsaturated hydrocarbons with a carbon-carbon triple bond are called alkynes.
  • Q1 B1) Find co-related terms:
    • Nonstick cookware : polystyrene
  • Q1 B2) The natural macromolecules (polysaccharides, proteins, and PVC) are supporting structures in living organisms.
  • Q2 A) Carbon forms many compounds due to its ability to form multiple bonds. A carbon atom does not form a C4+ cation.
