6. W HY A RE T HERE S O M ANY O RGANIC C OMPOUNDS ? Carbon forms stable, covalent bonds with other atoms such as H, O, N, S, and halogens

7. W HAT IS A F UNCTIONAL G ROUP ? A specific group of atoms within a molecule that help define the properties and reactivity of the molecule Will have the same properties regardless of the molecule to which it is attached

13. W HY A RE T HERE S O M ANY O RGANIC C OMPOUNDS ? Carbon can form double and triple bonds with other carbon atoms or other atoms

14. W HY A RE T HERE S O M ANY O RGANIC C OMPOUNDS ? The number of ways that carbon and other atoms can combine is almost limitless

15. T WO COMPOUNDS CAN HAVE EXACTLY THE SAME MOLECULAR FORMULAS BUT HAVE DIFFERENT PROPERTIES BASED ON THE ARRANGEMENT OF THE ATOMS

16. Each of the statements given below is true but John Dalton may have had trouble explaining them with his atomic theory. Give explanations for each of the following statements: ethyl alcohol and dimethyl ether have the same composition by mass—52% carbon, 13% hydrogen, and 35% oxygen. However, they have different melting points, boiling points, and solubility in water.

17. C OMPOUNDS THAT HAVE THE SAME MOLECULAR FORMULA BUT DIFFERENT STRUCTURAL FORMULAS ARE CALLED STRUCTURAL ISOMERS

18. I N LAB, YOU HAVE ALREADY DISCOVERED SOME OF THE PROPERTIES OF HYDROCARBONS W HAT MAKES THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF HYDROCARBONS DIFFERENT FROM THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF INORGANIC COMPOUNDS ?
