organic chemistry
study of compounds that contain carbon
how many covalent bonds can carbon form
four
valence
number of unpaired electrons
carbons most frequent pairings
hydrogen oxygen and nitrogen and are building code for living molecules
hydrocarbons
organic molecules consisting of any carbon and hydrogen, hydrophobic
carbon skeletons can vary how
length, double bond position, branching, presence of rings
isomers
compounds with same molecular formula but diff structures and properties
structural isomers
diff covalent arrangements of their atoms
cis-trans
same covalent bonds but differ in spatial arrangements around the double bond
enantiomers
mirror images of each other
functional groups
components of organic molecules that are most commonly involved in chemical reactions
Adenosine Triphosphate ATP
releases energy that is used by the cell, stores potential to react with water
