AB
What type of molecule is this?, A basic aldehyde pp64&65,
What type of molecule is this?, carboxylic-acid pp64&65,
What type of molecule is this?, aldehyde (hexanal) pp64&65,
What type of molecule is this?, ketone (2-butanone) pp64&65,
What type of molecule is this?, Ketone pp64&65,
What is the molecular formula and shape of benzene?C6H6, ring p61
One of several organic compounds with the same molecular formula but different structures, and therefore, different properties.isomer p62
A functional group present in organic acids consisting of a single carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom and also bonded to a hydroxyl group.carboxyl group pp64&65,
A functional group consisting of a sulfur atom bonded to a hydrogen atom (--SH).sulfhydryl group pp64&65,
A functional group that consists of a nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms. It can act as a base in a solution, accepting a hydrogen ion and acquiring a charge of +1.amino group pp64&65,
An organic molecule consisting only of carbon and hydrogen is called a(n) _____.hydrocarbon (the butane molecule below is a hydrocarbon because it has only hydrogens and carbons) p61,
An arrangement of two non-carbon atoms, each bound to one of the carbons in a carbon-carbon double bond,where the two non-carbon atoms are on the same side relative to the double bond.cis p62,
An arrangement of two non-carbon atoms, each bound to one of the carbons in a carbon-carbon double bond,where the two non carbon atoms are opposite sides relative to the double bond.trans p62,
A specific configuration of atoms commonly attached to the carbon skeleton of organic molecules and usually involved in chemical reactions.functional group (the carboxyl-group in red below is a functional group that makes the molecule acidic because it often loses the hydrogen as a hydrogen ion into the solution which lowers the pH of the solution) p63,
A type of isomer in which carbons have covalent bonds to the same atoms, but these atoms differ in their spatial arrangements due to the inflexibility of carbon-carbon double bonds.Cis-trans isomers (a.k.a. geometric isomer) p62,
A functional group that is important in energy transfer.Phosphate group (think of ATP-->ADP + P + energy) p66,
One of several organic compounds that have the same molecular formula but differ in the covalent arrangement of their atoms.structural isomer p62,
A functional group present in aldehydes and ketones that consists of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom.carbonyl group pp64&65,
A functional group consisting of a hydrogen atom joined to an oxygen atom by a polar covalent bond. Molecules possessing this group are soluble in water and are called alcohols.hydroxyl group pp64&65,
One of two molecules that are mirror images of each other.enantiomer (also called a stereo-isomer) p62,
What type of molecule is this?, An aldehyde (It's an aldehyde because the carbonyl group is coming off a terminal carbon. If it wasn't, it would be a ketone. The name of this molecule is ethanal, since it has two carbons like ethane) pp64&65,
What is the name of the functional group in red?, amino group pp64&65,
What is the name of this functional group?, carbonyl group pp64&65,
What is the name of this type of molecule and what is the name of its functional group?, ketone, carbonyl group (The specific name of the molecule pictured is propanone because it is a ketone with 3 carbons like propane) pp64&65,
What is the name of this type of molecule and what is the name of its functional group?, Carboxylic acid, carboxyl group (This molecule is called ethanoic acid but is more commonly referred to as acetic acid which is the acid in vineger) pp64&65,
What is the name of this molecule?, cyclohexane p61,
What do we call these two molecules?, enantiomers (or stereoisomers; notice that they are mirror images of each other) p62,
What type of isomers are these?, cis-trans isomers (a.k.a. geometric isomers) p62,
Which of these cis-trans isomers would be considered the "cis" isomer and which would be the "trans" isomer?, The one on the left is "cis" and the one on the right is "trans" (the prefix trans means across) p62,
What is the name of this type of molecule and what is the name of its functional group?, An alcohol, hydroxyl group (This is ethanol because it has two carbons like ethane. The common name is ethyl alcohol) p64&65,
What is the name of this functional group?, phosphate group p64&65,
What type of isomers are these?, structural isomers p62,
What is the name of this functional group?, Sulfhydryl group p64&65,
Carbon can form a wide variety of compounds because it forms ____ covalent bonds.4 (p60)
Each line in a structural formula (like the one below) represents a _____., pair of shared electrons,
____ is the source of carbon for all of the organic molecules found in organisms.carbon dioxide p58
An important energy storing molecule that has 3 phosphate groups is called _____.Adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) p66,
Hydrocarbons can be either _____, _____, or _____ shaped.straight, branched, or ring shaped p61
Organic molecules consisting of only carbon and hydrogen are called ______.hydrocarbons p61
