| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Structural Isomers | Compounds with same formula, but atoms linked differently |
| Geometric Isomers | Possible when double bond is present; different orientations in space; cis and trans |
| Optical Isomers | have non-superimposable mirror images |
| Chiral atoms | have 4 different substituents |
| Alkanes | C-C single bonds; C(n)H(2n+2) |
| Cycloalkanes | C-C single bonds; C(n)H(2n) |
| Alkenes | C-C double bond; C(n)H(2n) |
| Alkynes | C-C triple bond; C(n)H(2n-2) |
| Aromatic Compounds | Alternating C-C double bonds and C-C single bonds; C(n)H(n) |

| Alcohols | R-OH |
| Ethers | R-O-R' |
| Primary Amines | R-NH2 |
| Secondary Amines | R-NH-R' |
| Tertiary Amines | R-NR'-R" |
| Aldehyde | R-C-H -al = O |
| Ketone | R-C-R' -one = O |
| Carboxylic Acid | R-C-OH' -oic acid = O |
| Ester | R-C-OR' -oate = O |
| Ortho- | Next to each other |
| Meta- | Two away |
| Para- | Opposite sides (three away) |
| Esters (formation) | Condensation rxn between alcohol and carboxylic acid |
| Amides | R-C-NH2 = O |
| Thermoplastics | soften and flow when they are heated and harden when hey are cooled |
| Thermosetting Plastics | are initially soft but set to a solid when heated and cannot be resoftened |
