🗑
|
||||

| Isomerisation? | makes a new chemical with the same molecular formula as the starting material, but is now branched.
🗑
|
||||
| Reforming? | forms cyclic alkanes from straight chain alkanes. Product has the same number of carbons as the starting material but has lost hydrogen
🗑

🗑
|
||||
| describe how to name an alcohol? | 1) identify the longest carbon chain and name it, 2) identify side chains and name them, 3) give the lowest number possible to identify the position of the sidechain, 4) number the alcohol group to give it the lowest number e.g. 2-methylbutan-1-ol
🗑
