Term
Definition
Homologous Series   A series of compounds with the same functional group, the same general formula, and where one member differs from the next by CH2  
🗑
Empirical Formula   Shows the simplest whole number ratio of the atoms present in one molecule  
🗑
Molecular Formula   Shows the actual number of atoms present in one moleculae  
🗑
Structural Formula   Shows each atom in the molecule seperately and how it is bonded. A more condenced way is to show the groupings around each carbon atom.  
🗑
Isomers   Two or more compounds with the same molecular formula.  
🗑
Homolytic Fission   When a bond breaks and one electron goes to each atom  
🗑
Heterolytic Fission   When a bond breaks and both electrons go to the same atom.  
🗑
Substitution   A reaction in which an atom or group of atoms are replaced by another atom or groups of atoms.  
🗑
Addition   A reaction in which two molecules react together to form a single product.  
🗑
Elimination   A reaction in which elements of a simple molecule such as HBr are removed without being replaced by an atom or groups of atoms  
🗑
Hydrolysis   A reaction in which water splits an orgainc into two components.  
🗑
Free Radical   A species with a single unpaired electron  
🗑
Nucleophile   A species which seeks out positive centres, and must have a lone pair of electrons ehich it donates to form a new dative covalent bond.  
🗑
Electrophile   A species which seeks out negative centres, and accepts a lone pair of electrons to form a new dative covalent bond.  
🗑
Number of moles in relation to concentration   Moles = Concentration / Volume (dm3)  
🗑
