1. Organic Chemistry

2. What is “organic” chemistry?
organic – carbon compound
Includes the substances of “life” found in your body
Hydrocarbons – compounds made of H + C
Saturated – Carbons have all single bonds
Fats that are solids at room temp.
Unsaturated – Carbons have double and/or triple bonds
Fats that are liquids at room temp.

3. Info about Carbon always forms 4 bonds very stable compounds Examples:
because it has 4 valence electrons
very stable compounds
Examples:
Pharmaceuticals (aspirin, vitamins, insulin)
Petrochemicals (propane, butane, & octane)
AKA: hydrocarbons

6. Saturated vs. Unsaturated Carbon Chains

7. Saturated vs. Unsaturated

8. Saturated Unsaturated Single bonds to carbon

12. SOL Released Question

13. An example of carbon chains.
Polymers
An example of carbon chains.

15. Natural Polymers
Carbohydrates
Nucleic Acids
DNA
RNA
Proteins

16. RNA DNA
Nucleic acid polymers

17. Proteins are polymers of amino acids

18. Synthetic Polymers All plastics monomer + monomer = polymer
Made from petroleum
Long chains of carbon monomers
monomer + monomer = polymer
“polymerization reaction”

19. Examples of Synthetic Polymers
Nylon
Polyester
Teflon
Kevlar
Plastics!!
