Question 2: Organic oxidation
Answer:
organic acids are oxidized to make alcohols
Question 3: alco-diol
Answer:
alcohol with 2 hydroxyl (OH) groups
Question 4: Functional groups
Answer:
on table R, changes that can be made or added to a hydrocarbon that make it into a whole different category of organic compound (ie. Ketone, ester)
Question 5: Alkane
Answer:
Hydrocarbon general formula CnH2n+2
Question 6: cracking or hydrolysis
Answer:
splitting large polymer hydrocarbons back down into their subunits by adding water
Question 7: Polymer
Answer:
a very long organic compound; comprised of repeated subunits
Question 8: Isomers
Answer:
have the same molecular formula but different structures
Question 9: Polymer
Answer:
several hydrocarbons linked together by addition polymerization or dehydration synthesis
Question 10: homologous series
Answer:
a family of hydrocarbons, like alkanes, they all contain the same general formula.
Question 11: triene
Answer:
contains 3 double bonds
Question 12: Fermentation
Answer:
start with a sugar and ends with ethanol and carbon dioxide
Question 13: Polymerization
Answer:
linking together small hyrdocarbons into longer chain by either removing water (condenstaion, dehydration) or breaking double bonds to single bonds (addition)
Question 14: Addition
Answer:
start with alkene or alkyne. Break apart the multiple bond and add 2 halogens. (one product only)
Question 15: Hydrogenation
Answer:
an addition reaction that uses hydrogen instead of a halogen

Answer:
Hydrocarbon with at least one double bond and general formula CnH2n
Question 20: Alcohol
Answer:
Organic compound that contains an -OH functional group
Question 21: Halide (Halocarbon)
Answer:
Organic compound that contains F, Cl, Br or I functional group
Question 22: Saponification
Answer:
NaOH +fatty acid yields soap and water
Question 23: organic chemistry
Answer:
study of carbon and its compounds
Question 24: Substitution
Answer:
start with an alkane, switch one hydrogen with a halogen. The other product is an acid
Question 25: Combustion
Answer:
HC fuel + Oxygen yields CO2 and water
Question 26: When is an organic cmpd "saturated?"
Answer:
contains ONLY single bonds
Question 27: Alkyne
Answer:
Hydrocarbon with at least one triple bond and general formula CnH2n-2
