Study Notes

Compounds and Chemical Reactions

  • Compounds are substances made of two or more elements combined chemically in fixed proportions.
  • Ethyne exhibits a total of six shared electrons between its carbon atoms.

Molecular Interactions

  • The reaction of two fluorine atoms forming a fluorine molecule involves energy release and bond formation.
  • Ideal gases, according to kinetic molecular theory, have no attractive forces between particles.

Phase Changes and Reactions

  • The transition from solid to gas represents an endothermic physical change.
  • Ketones feature oxygen bonded to the carbon in their functional groups.

Organic Chemistry

  • Key organic reactions include esterification and polymerization.
  • Butane and methyl-propane are isomers with different molecular formulas but identical properties.

Electrolytes and Bases
