Study Notes
Organic Chemistry: Hydrocarbons and Molecular Structures
- Hydrocarbons are the simplest organic compounds consisting of carbon (C) and hydrogen (H).
- They are classified into three types: aliphatic (acyclic), alicyclic (cyclic), and aromatic hydrocarbons.
- Aliphatic hydrocarbons include alkanes (single bonds), alkenes (double bonds), and alkynes (triple bonds).
- Alicyclic hydrocarbons consist of cycloalkanes, cycloalkenes, and cycloalkynes.
- Aromatic hydrocarbons are characterized by a ring of carbon with alternating single and double bonds, such as benzene.
- Carbon exhibits covalent bonding with sigma (σ) and pi (π) bonds, with sigma bonds being the strongest.
- The VSEPR theory explains the shapes of molecules based on the arrangement of electron pairs around the central atom.
- Molecular formulas like C2H2, BCl3, CH4, HCN, SnCl2, NH3, and CO2 can be represented using ball-and-stick models.
- Molecular orbital treatment and hybridization determine the types of orbitals involved in hydrogen bonding.
- The sp3 hybrid orbitals in methane (CH4) allow for stronger single bonds due to more concentrated overlapping.
- Ethene (C2H4) forms a double bond with sp2 hybridization, resulting in stronger bonds due to more concentrated overlapping.
- Ethyne (C2H2) forms a triple bond with sp hybridization, resulting in stronger bonds due to more concentrated overlapping.
