AB
Aliphatic hydrocarbonsProlonged exposure and inhalation may cause irritation to skin, digestive system, throat, and lungs, Neurotoxic
AlkanesMethane series: a series of non-aromatic saturated hydrocarbons with the general formula CnH(2n+2),
AlkeneAn alkene is a hydrocarbon containing a double carbon-carbon bond.,
Alkyl GroupAny of a series of univalent groups of the general formula CnH2n+1 derived from aliphatic hydrocarbons,
AlkynesAre hydrocarbons that have a triple bond between two carbon atoms, with the formula CnH2n-2,
Aromatic CompoundAlso known as arenes or aromatics, are chemical compounds that contain conjugated planar ring systems with delocalized pi electron clouds instead of discrete alternating single and double bonds.,
Asymmetric carbonAn aldohexose with 4 asymmetric carbon atoms has 24 = 16 stereoisomers: The four groups of atoms attached to the carbon atom can be arranged in space in two different ways that are mirror images of each other, and which lead to so-called left-handed and right-handed versions of the same molecule.,
Branched-chain alkaneAny of its carbon atoms is joined to more than two other carbon atoms,
cis configurationcis-trans isomerism or geometric isomerism or configuration isomerism or E-Z isomerism is a form of stereoisomerism describing the orientation of functional groups within a molecule,
Condensed Structural FormulasA structural representation of a compound that includes all of the atoms present in a molecule or other chemical entity but represents only certain bonds as lines in order to emphasize a structural characteristic.,
CracklingFifth derivative of the position vector with respect to time,
Cyclic hydrocarbonAn organic compound that contains carbon and hydrogen only.,
Geometric isomersA chemical species with the same type and quantity of atoms as another species, yet having a different geometric structure.,
Homologous seriesA series is a series of organic compounds with a similar general formula, possessing similar chemical properties due to the presence of the same functional group, and shows a gradation in physical properties as a result of increase in molecular size and mass,
HydrocarbonsAn organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon,
IsomersA chemical species with the same number and types of atoms as another chemical species, but possessing different properties. There are structural isomers, geometric isomers, optical isomers, and stereoisomers.,
Optical isomersA chiral molecule is a type of molecule that lacks an internal plane of symmetry and has a non-superimposable mirror image. The feature that is most often the cause of chirality in molecules is the presence of an asymmetric carbon atom.,
saturated compoundsCompounds in which carbon atoms are joined together by single bonds,
StereoisomersOne of a set of isomers whose molecules have the same atoms bonded to each other but differ in the way these atoms are arranged in space.,
Straight chain alkanesOne of a set of isomers whose molecules have the same atoms bonded to each other but differ in the way these atoms are arranged in space.,
Structural isomersConstitutional isomerism in accordance with IUPAC, is a form of isomerism in which molecules with the same molecular formula have atoms bonded together in different orders, as opposed to stereoisomerism.,
SubstinentIs an atom or group of atoms substituted in place of a hydrogen,
Trans configurationIn organic chemistry, cis-trans isomerism or geometric isomerism or configuration isomerism or E-Z isomerism is a form of stereoisomerism describing the orientation of functional groups within a molecule.,
Unsaturated compoundIs a chemical compound that contains carbon-carbon double bonds or triple bonds such as in alkenes or alkynes. In a saturated compound these double bonds are removed by the addition of hydrogen and no multiple bonds are present,
