    The document discusses several key topics in organic chemistry: - There are four main types of organic compounds: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Carbon is the most interesting element as it can form strong bonds and large molecules in many combinations. - Isomers are organic compounds with the same molecular formula but different structural arrangements. Hydrocarbons are composed solely of carbon and hydrogen, forming the basis of fossil fuels. - The two classes of hydrocarbons are aliphatic and aromatic. Aliphatic hydrocarbons contain carbon chains while aromatic hydrocarbons have benzene rings. Common functional groups are defined with examples.

    1. Give the 2 types of organic chemistry.

    - There are four main types, or classes, of organic compounds found in all living
    things: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. In addition, there are
    other organic compounds that may be found in or produced by some organisms

    2. What are the different types of organic formula and described each.

    3. Why is carbon is the most interesting element in organic chemistry?

    - Carbon is the most interesting elements because it has four electrons in its
    second orbital, which can accommodate eight, carbon can combine in many
    different ways, and it can form very large molecules. Carbon bonds are strong
    and can stay together in water. Carbon is such a versatile element that almost 10
    million different carbon compounds exist.

    4. What is ismorism in organic chemistry?

    - In organic chemistry, isomers are molecules with the same molecular formula
    (i.e. the same number of atoms of each element), but different structural or
    spatial arrangements of the atoms within the molecule.

    5. What is hydrocarbon?

    - A hydrocarbon is an organic chemical compound composed exclusively of


    hydrogen and carbon atoms. Hydrocarbons are naturally-occurring compounds
    and form the basis of crude oil, natural gas, coal, and other important energy
    sources.

    6. Give the two classes of hydrocarbon and described.

    - The 2 classes of hydrocarbon are the aliphatic hydrocarbons and aromatic


    hydrocarbons. The Aliphatic hydrocarbons are hydrocarbons based on chains of C
    atoms. There are three types of aliphatic hydrocarbons. Alkanes are aliphatic
    hydrocarbons with only single covalent bonds. Alkenes are hydrocarbons that
    contain at least one C–C double bond, and alkynes are hydrocarbons that contain
    a C–C triple bond while the aromatic hydrocarbons, or arenes, are aromatic
    organic compounds containing solely carbon and hydrogen atoms. The
    configuration of six carbon atoms in aromatic compounds is called a “benzene
    ring”, after the simple aromatic compound benzene, or a phenyl group when part
    of a larger compound.

    7. Give the different functional groups in organic chemistry. Write in table form and
    include the general formula, line/structure formula, nomenclature ( prefix or suffix)),
    properties and 1 example.

    - In organic chemistry, the most common functional groups are carbonyls (C=O),
    alcohols (-OH), carboxylic acids (CO2H), esters (CO2R), and amines (NH2). It is

    important to be able to recognize the functional groups and the physical and
    chemical properties that they afford compounds.
