Carbon

All living matterFour bondsDouble and triple bonds

3

Diamond

Colorless crystalline solidExtremely high melting pointConducts heat very wellDoes not conduct electricityCovalent network bonding

Bonded to four nearest neighbors

4

Graphite

Crumbles easilyFeels greasyAtoms arranged in thin layersWeak London dispersion forces

Layers slide past each other

Conducts electricity

5

Fullerenes

Formed when carbon-containing materials are burned with limited oxygenNearly sphericalC60

Most stableCalled buckminsterfullerene or buckyball

6

7

Organic compounds

Covalently bonded compounds containing carbonExcept:

Carbonates and oxides

8

Catenation

Covalent bonding of an element to itself to form chains or rings

Carbon can also double or triple bond to itself

9

hydrocarbons

Contain only carbon and hydrogenSimplest organic compounds

10

Structural formula

Regular or condensed

Carbon makes four bonds, hydrogen makes oneHydrogen is understood to bond to the atom next to it

11

Draw the condensed structural formulas

12

Geometric isomers

Order of atom bonding is the same, but arrangement of atoms is space is differentNeed rigid structure in molecule

Double or triple bond

Need two carbons each with two different groups attachedCis and trans isomers

13

Cis isomer

Like groups on same side of carbon atoms

14

Trans iosmer

Like groups on opposite sides of carbon atoms

15

Alkanes

AKA saturated hydrocarbonsHold maximum amount of hydrogenContain only single bondsGeneral formula CnH2n+2

16

Cycloalkanes

Carbons arranged in ringFewer hydrogen atoms – no free endsGeneral formula CnH2n

17

propane vs. cyclopropane

18

Simplified cycloalkane structure

Carbon at each cornerEnough hydrogen so each carbon has four bonds

19

IUPAC

International Union of Pure and Applied ChemistrySystematic naming system
