    Study Notes

    Physical Properties of Hydrocarbons

    • Hydrocarbons are insoluble in water but soluble in non-polar solvents.
    • Alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes have lower densities than water, increasing with the number of carbon atoms.
    • Alkanes with branching on a carbon chain have lower boiling points, while cycloalkanes have higher boiling points compared to their non-cyclic counterparts.

    Chemical Properties of Hydrocarbons

    • Combustion: Hydrocarbons react with oxygen, producing carbon dioxide, water, and heat energy.
      • Complete combustion: Excess oxygen results in CO2 and H2O.
      • Incomplete combustion: Limited oxygen produces CO and H2O.
    • Types of Bonds:
      • Alkanes have single bonds (sigma bonds), making them stable.
      • Alkenes and Alkynes have double and triple bonds (pi bonds), making them less stable.
    • Reaction Types:
      • Alkanes undergo substitution reactions.
      • Alkenes and Alkynes undergo addition reactions.
