Organic Chem Vocab
Across
- 2. an aromatic hydrocarbon
- 4. chemical bond dissociation of a molecular bond by a process where each of the fragments (an atom or molecule) retains one of the originally bonded electrons.
- 7. an atom or a molecule that in chemical reaction seeks an atom or molecule containing an electron pair available for bonding.
- 8. a substance that enters into and is altered in the course of a chemical reaction.
- 9. show the movement of single electrons during the breaking of the bond.
- 10. a type of chemical reaction in which two molecules are combined to form a single molecule
- 13. hydrocarbons that have double or triple covalent bonds between adjacent carbon atoms.
- 14. An organic compound in which all the carbon atoms are connected by single bonds.
- 15. compounds that contain exactly the same number of atoms
- 18. one in which two or more organic compounds have the same molecular formulas but different structures.
- 19. an organic reaction where two or more molecules combine to form a larger one
- 20. a molecular fragment that departs with a pair of electrons in heterolytic bond cleavage.
Down
- 1. a chemical reaction during which one functional group in a chemical compound is replaced by another functional group.
- 2. a two-stage reaction process of an addition reaction followed by an elimination reaction.
- 3. the simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in a compound.
- 5. hydrocarbons that are the open chain compounds and also closed chains.
- 6. a graphic representation of the molecular structure, showing how the atoms are possibly arranged in the real three-dimensional space.
- 11. the process of cleaving/breaking a covalent bond where one previously bonded species takes both original bonding electrons from the other species.
- 12. consists of the chemical symbols for the constituent elements followed by numeric subscripts describing the number of atoms of each element present in the molecule.
- 16. an electron-rich molecule that can form covalent bonds by donating electrons to electron-poor sites.
- 17. used in mechanisms to show the various electron pairs moving around
