  • Hydrocarbons
    Compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen atoms, forming single, double, or triple bonds.
  • Tetravalent
    Characteristic of carbon atoms to form four bonds when neutral.
  • Alkanes
    Saturated hydrocarbons with only single bonds between carbon atoms.
  • Alkenes
    Unsaturated hydrocarbons containing at least one carbon-carbon double bond.
  • Alkynes
    Unsaturated hydrocarbons with at least one carbon-carbon triple bond.
  • Benzene
    A stable aromatic hydrocarbon with a C6H6 formula, featuring alternating double bonds.
  • Saturated Hydrocarbons
    Hydrocarbons where each carbon atom is bonded to the maximum number of hydrogen atoms.
  • Unsaturated Hydrocarbons
    Hydrocarbons with double or triple bonds, not fully saturated with hydrogen.
  • Hybridization
    The concept of mixing atomic orbitals to form new hybrid orbitals for bonding.
  • Resonance Structures
    Different Lewis structures representing the same molecule, showing electron delocalization.
  • Resonance Hybrid
    The actual structure of a molecule, representing a blend of all resonance structures.
  • Conjugation
    Alternating single and double bonds in a molecule, allowing electron delocalization.
  • Functional Groups
    Specific groups of atoms within molecules that determine the chemical reactions of those molecules.
  • Alkane Prefixes
    Prefixes used to name alkanes based on the number of carbon atoms present.
  • Aromatic Compounds
    Compounds containing a benzene ring, known for their stability and unique reactions.
