| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Photosynthesis | The biological process by which autotrophic organisms convert light energy into chemical energy to produce carbohydrates |
| Polymerization | Polymers are organic compounds made of chains of smaller units (monomers) Plastics, nylon, rayon, proteins, cellulose, etc. are polymers nC2H2 🡪 (C2H2)n (n is a huge #) |
| Saponification | An alkaline hydrolysis reaction of an ester (typically a fat or oil) with a strong base to produce soap and glycerol contains a metal |
| Addition | Adding a halogen to the carbon chain by breaking a double or triple bond Only works with unsaturated compounds (has double or triple bonds) |
| Substitution | Replacement of one or more H atoms with a halogen Only with saturated compounds (all single bonds) |
| Organic Combustion | Combustion of hydrocarbons (compounds that only contain C and H) Always gives off CO2 and H2O (or sometimes CO) Gives off a lot of energy |
| mass to mole | molar mass/1 mole |
| mole to mass | 1 mole/molar mass |
| mole to particles | 6.02 x 10^23 / 1 mole |
| particles to mole | 1 mole/6.02 x 10^23 |
| mole to volume | 22.4 L / 1 mole |
| volume to mole | 1 mole / 22.4 L |
