Flashcard: Hydrocarbon Chemistry Fundamentals — 10 carte

Hydrocarbon types — categories?

Alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, aromatic.

Hydrocarbons — definition?

Organic compounds of hydrogen and carbon.

Alkanes vs alkenes — difference?

Alkanes are saturated; alkenes are unsaturated with double bonds.

Alkanes — bonds?

Only single bonds (saturated).

Aromatic hydrocarbons — stability?

Stabilized by resonance delocalization of π-electrons.

Alkenes — bonds?

At least one C=C double bond.

Alkynes — bonds?

At least one C≡C triple bond.

Aromatic hydrocarbons — feature?

Contain benzene rings with resonance.

Hydrocarbon reactivity — influenced by?

Type of bonds (single, double, triple).

Isomer types?

Structural and geometric isomers.
