4
what do you use to separate numbers? What do you use to separate words from numbers
For numbers - comma
For word and numbers - hyphon

double bond to oxygen at end
-anal
7
whats a ketone
double to oxygen in middle
-anone
8
whats nitrile
triple bond to nitrogen
-nitrile
9
if theres multiple prefix substituents. in what order do you do
Alphabetical
10
whats a functional group
group of atoms in molecule which determines its reactivity
11
what are isomers
compounds with same molecular formula but different arrangements of atoms
12
what are structural isomers
Compounds with the same molecular formula but different structural formula
13
examples of structural isomerism?
Chain
positional
functional group
14
Chain isomerism?
compounds with same molecular formula but different arrangements of hydrocarbon chains
15
Positional isomer?
compounds with same molecular formulas but functional group is at different positions
16
Functional group isomer?
compounds with same molecular formula but have different functional groups
17
Stereoisomers
compounds with same structural formulas but different spatial arrangements.
18
substituent
an atom or group of atoms that can be replaced by H in a double bond
19
E-Z isomers?
isomers resulting from restricted rotation in a double bond
20
Cahn Ingold Prelog rule if theres 3 or more substituents around double bond?
1)Compare the atomic numbers of the two substituents
2)The one with a bigger one is priority group
If its the same go to the next atoms bonded
21
alcohol?
higher priority: -anol
lower: hydroxy-
22
What are homologous series?
family of organic compounds with the same functional group, but different hydrocarbon chain lengths.
