hydrocarbon
compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms with single covalent bonds
saturated
all carbon atoms are bonded to 4 other atoms via single sigma bonds (all carbon atoms are sp3 - hybridized)
unsaturated
one or more carbon atoms are bonded to atoms via double/triple (pi) bonds (one or more atoms are sp2/sp hybridized)
functional groups
an atom or a group of atoms that exhibits a characteristic (predictable) chemical behavior and behaves the same way chemically in every compound it is a part of
alkane
functional group
alkene
functional group
alchohol
functional group
thiol
functional group
amide
functional group
arene
functional group
Carboxylic acid
functional group
amine
functional group
ketone
functional group
conformations
different molecular shapes or 3-D structures that result from rotation about single sigma bonds
torsional strain
resistance to rotation due to electronic repulsion between adjacent bonding electrons that increase energy (destabilization) resulting from eclipsed bonds on adjacent atoms
steric strain
electronic repulsion between two groups through space
cycloalkanes
saturated hydrocarbons where the carbon forms a ring
anti staggered
180 degreees
gauche staggered
60 degrees
