Carbon compounds contain carbon and one or more other elements, such as ______, ______, ______, and ______.
This is a compound that contains a benzene structure, which is a ring of six carbon atoms with alternating single and double bonds with single hydrogen atoms attached to each carbon.
Describe the structural formula of an aromatic compound.
Isomers are compounds that have the same chemical formulas, but different molecular structures and shapes.

A saturated hydrocarbon contains all single bonds. An unsaturated hydrocarbon contains at least one double or triple bond.
Explain the difference between a saturated and an unsaturated hydrocarbon.
saturated hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons containing only single-bonded carbon atoms are called ______.
unsaturated hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons, such as ethene and ethyne, that contain at least one double or triple bond are called ______.
saturated
Is ethane saturated or unsaturated?
molecular structures.
Isomers are compounds that have identical chemical formulas but different
structural formula, arrangement
Like a molecular formula, a ______ indicates the number and kinds of atoms that make up a molecule of a compound. Additionally, it describes the ______ of the atoms in the molecule.
carbon
Most compounds containing what element are organic compounds?
carbon
Organic chemistry is the study of the compounds of ______.
lipids
Organic compounds such as fats and oils are called ______.
carbohydrates
Organic compounds such as sugars and starches are called ______.
CH4, carbon, hydrogen
The molecular formula for methane is ______. This means each methane molecule is made up of 1______ atom and 4______ atoms.
single and double
The structural formula of the benzene ring has what types of alternating bonds?
alkane, alkene, alkyne
There are three groups of straight-chain hydrocarbons. The ______ series consists of hydrocarbons that have single covalent bonds between each of the carbon atoms. An ______ series hydrocarbon has a double bond between at least two of its carbon atoms. A double bond counts as two bonds, so a carbon atom that has a double bond has only two remaining electrons available to form covalent bonds. An ______ series hydrocarbon has a triple bond (three covalent bonds) between at least two of its carbon atoms.
petroleum
What is a mixture of thousands of carbon compounds which, when processed, produces gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel, diesel oil, lubricating oil, and asphalt?
hydrocarbon containing at least one double bond
What is an example of an unsaturated hydrocarbon?
CH4
What is the chemical formula for methane?
A molecular formula only includes the elements in the compound and the number of atoms, but the structural formula also includes the specific arrangement of the atoms.
What is the difference between a molecular formula and a structural formula?
CnH2n+2
What is the general formula for hydrocarbons whose name ends in anes?
C3H8
