Question
Answer
What is organic chemistry?   The chemistry of carbon (living things).  
🗑
What are alkanes?   Hydrocarbons  
🗑
Tell me about methane.   CH4, simplest alkane.  
🗑
Tell me about ethane   C2H6, used for plastics.  
🗑
Tell me about propane.   C3H8, used for bbqs  
🗑
Tell me about butane.   C4H10, used for cigarette lighters.  
🗑
Tell me about pentane   C5H12  
🗑
Tell me about hexane   C6H14  
🗑
What do all alkanes have in common?   All these things can be found in gasoline.  
🗑
Why do we have so many carbons? (REALLY IMPORTANT)   Carbon has four valence electrons, it can either give up 4 or gain 4. Which makes it super compatible with other elements.  
🗑
Can Carbons combine with each other?   Yes, they can have double bonds with each other.  
🗑
What is essential for life and all living things to have?   Carbon.  
🗑
What gets more wet as it dries?   Towel.  
🗑
Why aren't there many silicon combinations?   Silicon doesn't like itself? It will never double bond with itself. It will however bond with itself if others are around (Si-O-Si-O)  
🗑
What is silicon used for?   Silicon is used for nose jobs, boob jobs, ect.It is also used in science fiction novels.  
🗑
What ending is added when Alkanes meet OH?   The -e suffix is dropped and an -ol suffix is added instead.  
🗑
Methane + OH = ?   Methyl alcohol - methanol (wood alcohol)  
🗑
Ethane + OH = ?   Ethyl alcohol - ethanol (grain alcohol)  
🗑
Propane + OH = ?   Propyl alcohol - propanol  
🗑
Butane + OH = ?   Butyl alcohol - butanol  
🗑
What is Isopropyl Alcohol 70% used for?   It can be found in your medicine cabinet.  
🗑
What is Acetic Acid 5%?   It's what an ant injects in you when it bites you.  
🗑
What is formic acid?   When you hadd CO to OH and mix that with an alkane. That's what you get. COOH + alkane  
🗑
What is Benzene rings?   They are bonds that are connected as an entire unit where everything shares everything.  
🗑
What is Nanochemisty?   The study of really really tiny things?  
🗑
What is graphene?   It's something that was discovered 10 years ago, it's a sheet of carbon that is one molecule thick.  
🗑
What is changing the fastest?   The rate of change.  
🗑
What is poly alcohol?   It's when an alkane has more than one OH.  
🗑
What is Ethylene Glycol?   Anti-freeze, it tastes sweet and kills pets.  
🗑
How do you calculate the number of electrons in an alkane?   CnH2n+2 (n is the number of carbon atoms)  
🗑
What is the molecular formula for benzene?   C6H6.  
🗑
What is an aromatic compound?   Any compound that contains a benzene ring or has properties that are similar to benzene.  
🗑
