alkane molecule consisting of only carbon and hydrogen atoms connected by single (σ) bonds
alkene molecule consisting of carbon and hydrogen containing at least one carbon-carbon double bond
alkyl group substituent, consisting of an alkane missing one hydrogen atom, attached to a larger structure
alkyne molecule consisting of carbon and hydrogen containing at least one carbon-carbon triple bond
amide organic molecule that features a nitrogen atom connected to the carbon atom in a carbonyl group
amine organic molecule in which a nitrogen atom is bonded to one or more alkyl group
aromatic hydrocarbon cyclic molecule consisting of carbon and hydrogen with delocalized alternating carbon-
carbon single and double bonds, resulting in enhanced stability carbonyl group
carbon atom double bonded to an oxygen atom carboxylic acid
organic compound containing a carbonyl group with an attached hydroxyl group ester
organic compound containing a carbonyl group with an attached oxygen atom that is bonded to a carbon substituent
ether organic compound with an oxygen atom that is bonded to two carbon atoms

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
