Carbon
Organic compounds primarily contain which element?
Hydrocarbon
The simplest type of organic molecule, consisting of only carbon and hydrogen.
Alkanes
Organic molecules that contain only single bonds between carbon atoms.
Alkenes
Organic molecules that contain at least one carbon-carbon double bond.
Hydroxyl Group (Alcohols)
The functional group consisting of an -OH group.
Carboxylic Acids
Organic compounds that contain a carboxyl functional group.
Amines
Organic compounds with one or more hydrogen atoms replaced by an -NH2 group.
Isomerism
The phenomenon in organic chemistry where compounds with identical molecular formulas but different structures or spatial arrangements are formed.
Saturated Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons that contain only single bonds and have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms.
The chain structure of carbon atoms gives a variety to organic molecules and is responsible for their diverse properties.
What is the role of carbon chains in organic molecules?
Aromatic Compounds
Unstable organic compounds that contain alternating double and single bonds, or aromatic rings.
Ethers
Organic compound with an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups.
Aldehydes and Ketones
Organic compounds with a carbonyl group (C=O). If at open end, it is aldehyde and else where, it is ketone.
Esters
Organic compounds formed by reaction of carboxylic acid and alcohol in presence of an acid.
Polymers
Large molecules formed by repeated linkage of many small molecules.
Chirality
Property of a molecule that is not superimposable on its mirror image.
Carbon can form four bonds, allowing it to create complex chains and ring structures.
What is the role of carbon in forming long chains and rings?
Substitution reaction, addition reaction, and combustion.
What are the reactions involving Alkanes, Alkenes, and Alkynes?
Functional groups determine the types of chemical reactions organic compounds can undergo.
What is the importance of functional groups in chemical reactions?
Plastics manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, soaps and detergents, fuels and energy, etc.
Major applications of Organic Chemistry in everyday life.
