The four parts of the IUPAC system
Prefix-Locant-Parent-Suffix
IUPAC: The prefix specifies the what?
location and identity of various substituents in the molecule
IUPAC: The locant gives the what?
the location of the primary functional group
IUPAC: The parent selects a...
main part of the molecule and tells how many carbon atoms are in that part.
IUPAC: The suffix...
identifies the primary functional group
A primary carbon is...
bonded to one other carbon
A secondary carbon is...
bonded to two other carbons
As the molecular weight of alkanes get _____, there is an _____ in both boiling and melting point.
larger, increase
Why do alkanes get a higher boiling and melting point as molecular weight increases?
Dispersion forces increase as molecular weight increases
As alkanes get more branched, their boiling point is _____
decreased
Branched chain alkanes are less linear and spherical, meaning...
they have a smaller surface area and smaller dispersion forces
The different arrangement of atoms that result from bond rotation are called _____.
corformations
What type of projection allows you to view a carbon-carbon bond directly end-on?
Newman projection
Steric strain is caused by...
the repulsive interactions caused by eclipsing bonds on neighboring atoms.
