CHEM 1020 FINAL EXAM
QUESTIONS AND VERIFIED DETAILED
ANSWERS GRADED A+
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
what is a major difference between organic and inorganic compounds?. ANSWER -organic
contain carbon
what is the reason why there are so many organic compounds?. ANSWER -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. ANSWER -formation of long chains& isomerism
Which applies to the manner in which carbon bonds in alkanes?. ANSWER -the bonds are
formed with carbon using an sp3 configuration
functional groups are. ANSWER -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. ANSWER -that is composed of
carbon and hydrogen
formulas of organic compounds. ANSWER -CH3CH2COOH, CH3CH2OH,
CH3CH3CH3
which is an alcohol. ANSWER -CH3CH2OH
what is meant by the term "saturated" when describing hydrocarbons. ANSWER -they are
saturated with hydrogen and only have single bonds between carbons
, correct statements on the naming of organic compounds. ANSWER -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. ANSWER -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. ANSWER -hydrophobic
what is a characteristic shared by the alkanes. ANSWER -flammable
which of the following is a use for alkanes?. ANSWER -a. fuel
b. lubricant
c. solvent
D. MORE THAN ONE IS CORRECT
which of the following represent a saturated hyrdocarbon. ANSWER -C2H6
All of the members of the alkane series of hydrocarbons have the general formula __.
ANSWER -CnH2n+2
which of the following compounds can exhibit structural isomerism?. ANSWER -butane
how many structural isomers are possible for compounds with a molecular formula C4H10.
ANSWER -2
which is a structural isomer of 2-methylbutane. ANSWER -pentane
how many structural isomers of C7H16 have 5 carbon atoms in the longest carbon chain.
