CHEM 1020 FINAL EXAM “Ace Your
CHEM 1020 Final: Study Smarter, Not
Harder”
what is a major difference between organic and inorganic compounds? ✔✔organic contain
carbon
what is the reason why there are so many organic compounds? ✔✔carbon atoms can form
stable covalent bonds with other carbon atoms
the vast number of organic compounds is due to the unique chemistry of carbon. this chemistry
involves ✔✔formation of long chains& isomerism
Which applies to the manner in which carbon bonds in alkanes? ✔✔the bonds are formed with
carbon using an sp3 configuration
functional groups are ✔✔to organic chem as polyatomic ions are to inorganic chem, are
chemically bound to each other in order to develop larger molecules
the alkanes represent one family of organic compounds ✔✔that is composed of carbon and
hydrogen
formulas of organic compounds ✔✔CH3CH2COOH, CH3CH2OH,
CH3CH3CH3
which is an alcohol ✔✔CH3CH2OH
,what is meant by the term "saturated" when describing hydrocarbons ✔✔they are saturated
with hydrogen and only have single bonds between carbons
correct statements on the naming of organic compounds ✔✔many compounds have been
known long enough to have common names, the naming system of organic compounds is set by
IUPAC rules, & the naming system requires that the longest carbon chain must always be found
cycloalkanes are ✔✔NOT: compounds that have a flat molecular structure,
saturated hydrocarbons, or compounds that cannot have hydrogens removed and replaced by
chlorine
which of the following term applies to the alkanes ✔✔hydrophobic
what is a characteristic shared by the alkanes ✔✔flammable
which of the following is a use for alkanes? ✔✔a. fuel
b. lubricant
c. solvent

A compound is incorrectly named 2-ethyl 1-2,4 - dimethylhexane. What would be the correct
IUPAC name ✔✔3,3,5-trimethylheptane
A general formula for cycloalkanes is ✔✔CnH2n

an alkane with 10 carbon atoms is a __ @ room temp ✔✔liquid
Alkanes are ___ in water and ___ than water ✔✔insoluble, less dense
complete combustion of pentane produces ✔✔CO2 & H2O
Alkanes react readily with ✔✔NOT: sodium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid
