MAY 3 2010

Today in class we learned something new!!!!


**must remember** CARBONS have to have 4 BONDS!!
ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
-organic chemistry is the study of the carbon atom and its compounds.
-carbon compounds outnumber all other compounds combined!
-->carbon can form many different bonds
-->bonds can have different arrangements
-->carbon can form long chains

HYDROCARBON HIERARCHY




ISOMERS
One molecular formula can represent several different compounds. These are called iomers.

C4H10

CH3-CH2-CH2-CH3


**RULES**

ALKANES
1. Circle the longest carbon chain. Name the chain with the appropriate prefix and the --ANE ending!
2. Locate any side chains by numbering the carbon chain. Use the lowest possible numbers.
3. Name the side chaine with appropriate prefix and --Y ending!
4. If there are more than one of the same chain alkyl side chain add the multiplier in front of the branch name.

EXAMPLES:
ask either on of your group members for the examples because they are honestly way too hard to draw on this blog! (=D)

but here is a link to a few examples

and if you were sick, make sure you go to mr.doktor to ask him for help...

HOMEWORK: worksheet on ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
do not do-----> #3,6,8,10, & 13 h,i,j,k
