Across
- 2. cyclic hydrocarbons that contain single bonds only and can have rings with three, four, five, six, or more carbon atoms
- 4. a hydrocarbon that contains only single bonds
- 5. a category of stereoisomers that results from different arrangements of groups around a double bond
- 9. a hydrocarbon that contains at least one double or triple bond between carbon atoms
- 12. the process by which petroleum can be separated into simpler components, called fraction, as they condense at different temperatures
- 14. a carbon atom that has four different atoms or groups of atoms attached to it; occurs in chiral compounds
- 16. organic compounds that contain one or more benzene rings as apart of their molecular structure
- 18. result from different arrangements of four different groups around the same carbon atom and have the same physical and chemical properties except in chemical reactions where chirality is important
- 20. the sidebranches that extend from the parent chain
- 21. onaromatic hydrocarbons, such as alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes
- 22. the process by which heavier fractions of petroleum are converted to gasoline by breaking the large molecules into smaller molecules
- 23. class of isomers whose atoms are bonded in different orders with the result that they have different chemical and physical properties despite having the same formula
Down
- 1. an unsaturated hydrocarbon with one or more double covalent bonds between carbon atoms in a chain
