Cycloalkanes
If the carbon chain that forms the straight-
chain hydrocarbon is long enough, the two
ends coming together to form a cycloalkane.
One hydrogen atom has to be removed from
each end of the hydrocarbon chain to form the
CC bond that closes the ring.
Cycloalkanes therefore have two less
hydrogen atoms than the parent alkane and a
generic formula of CnH2n.
Examples of cycloalkanes
cyclohexane cyclopropane
cyclobutane cyclopentane

WHICH ONE IS AN ALKYNE?
methyne
The aromatic hydrocarbons:
Benezene is good example: C6H6
IUPAC Nomenclature
Carboxylic acids are named by replacing the -e of the alkane
root name with -oic and adding the word acid. Substituents on
the chain are named as usual.
Some common acids:
methanoic acid
ethanoic acid
propanoic acid
2-methylpropanoic acid

The table below gives common and IUPAC names for some of
the simple carboxylic acids.
