Alkanes
These are organic compounds that consist of only C-C bonds, so are saturated. Their general formula is CnH2n+2
Methane, Propane, Decane etc.
Alkenes
Organic compounds that have at least one C=C bonds, meaning they are unsaturated. Their general formula is CnH2n.
Ethene, Butene, Decene etc.
Cycloalkanes
Organic compounds that have the same general formula as alkenes, but are arranged in a cyclic shape.
Cyclobutane, cyclohexane, cyclodecane etc.
Aldehydes
Organic compounds that have a C=O bond at the end of the compound.
Ethanal, butanal, decanal etc.
Branched alkanes
Alkanes that have alkyl groups (CH3, C2H6 etc) coming off them,
2-methylbutane, 2,3,3-trimethyldecane etc.
Ketone
Organic compounds that have a C=O bond within the compound, nt at the end.
Propanone, Pentanone, decanone etc.
Carboxylic acids
These are organic compounds that have the functional group -COOH, at the end of the compound.
Methanoic acid, Pentanoic acid, Decanoic acid etc.
Alcohol
Organic compounds that have the functional group -OH-. They have the general formula, CnH2n+1OH.
Ethanol, Butanol, Decanol etc.
Esters
Organic compounds that have the functional group -COO, and are made by mixing an alcohol and a carboxylic acid.
Ethyl propanoate, Propyl Pentanoate, Decyl Decanoate etc.
Haloalkanes
Alkanes that have a halogen replacing a Hydrogen.
