Study Notes

Organic Reactions Study Notes

  • Space-filling models do not provide information on bond types or numbers.
  • Pentane is a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C5H12.
  • A carbon chain comprising a single ring does not qualify as an aromatic compound.
  • Benzene has a structure closely resembling that of aspirin.
  • 2-methylpropane is a branched alkane.
  • Preservatives for biological specimens often include formaldehyde.
  • A compound suitable for condensation polymerization typically has two alcohol functional groups.
  • The molecular formula for methanol is CH3OH.
  • Secondary amines follow the general formula R2NH.
  • Propene can be converted to an alkyl halide through an addition reaction.
  • Estradiol, a hormone, is classified as an aromatic compound.
  • The chemical formula for acetic acid is C2H4O2.
  • Saturated hydrocarbons are primarily used in the combustion of natural gas.
  • Condensation polymerization requires monomers to have multiple functional groups.
  • Addition polymerization differs from condensation in that it retains all atoms from the monomers.
  • Geometric isomers are compounds with the same atoms in the same order but different spatial arrangements.
  • Polystyrene cups are composed of alkenes.
  • Carboxylic acids can be visualized as repeating units, similar to a train model.
  • Esters are commonly used in the fragrance industry.
  • The hydrocarbon CH3(CH2)6CH3 is classified as octane.
  • Of a group of similar-sized hydrocarbons, one identified as an alkyne is typically distinct from alkenes.
  • Many interconnected simple subunits lead to the formation of polymers.
  • Structural isomers have the same molecular formula but different arrangements of atoms.
  • Alcohols are characterized by the presence of hydroxyl (-OH) functional groups.
  • An organic compound is generally defined by containing carbon and often hydrogen, among other elements.
