SOLUTIONS.
what is a major difference between organic and inorganic compounds? - correct answer- organic contain carbon
what is the reason why there are so many organic compounds?
- correct 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 - correct answer- formation of long chains& isomerism
Which applies to the manner in which carbon bonds in alkanes? - correct answer- the bonds are formed with carbon using an sp3 configuration
functional groups are - correct answer- to organic chem as polyatomic ions are to inorganic chem, are chemically bound to each other in order to develop larger molecules 1 / 3

formulas of organic compounds - correct answer-
CH3CH2COOH, CH3CH2OH,
CH3CH3CH3
which is an alcohol - correct answer- CH3CH2OH
what is meant by the term "saturated" when describing hydrocarbons - correct answer- they are saturated with hydrogen and only have single bonds between carbons
correct statements on the naming of organic compounds - correct 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
