Organic Identities
  1. Alkanes
    1. These are organic compounds that consist of only C-C bonds, so are saturated. Their general formula is CnH2n+2
      1. Methane, Propane, Decane etc.
    2. Alkenes
      1. Organic compounds that have at least one C=C bonds, meaning they are unsaturated. Their general formula is CnH2n.
        1. Ethene, Butene, Decene etc.
      2. Cycloalkanes
        1. Organic compounds that have the same general formula as alkenes, but are arranged in a cyclic shape.
          1. Cyclobutane, cyclohexane, cyclodecane etc.
        2. Aldehydes
          1. Organic compounds that have a C=O bond at the end of the compound.
            1. Ethanal, butanal, decanal etc.
          2. Branched alkanes
            1. Alkanes that have alkyl groups (CH3, C2H6 etc) coming off them,
              1. 2-methylbutane, 2,3,3-trimethyldecane etc.
            2. Ketone
              1. Organic compounds that have a C=O bond within the compound, nt at the end.
                1. Propanone, Pentanone, decanone etc.
              2. Carboxylic acids
                1. These are organic compounds that have the functional group -COOH, at the end of the compound.
                  1. Methanoic acid, Pentanoic acid, Decanoic acid etc.
                2. Alcohol
                  1. Organic compounds that have the functional group -OH-. They have the general formula, CnH2n+1OH.
                    1. Ethanol, Butanol, Decanol etc.
                  2. Esters
                    1. Organic compounds that have the functional group -COO, and are made by mixing an alcohol and a carboxylic acid.
                      1. Ethyl propanoate, Propyl Pentanoate, Decyl Decanoate etc.
                    2. Haloalkanes
                      1. Alkanes that have a halogen replacing a Hydrogen.
                        1. 1-chloropentane, 1,,1,1-trichloro-2,2,2-trifluooroenthane
