One double bond in carbon chain |
|
Polyunsaturated fat |
More than one double bond in carbon chain |
|
Saturated fat |
No double bonds in the carbon chain |
|
Dehydration |
Remove water, create a new bond
Reactants: Monomers
Catalyst: enzyme (catalyst made of protein)
Products: Water, polymer |
|
Hydrolysis |
Add water, break bond
Reactants: water, ester or strong acid

nucleotide
3 fatty acid (glycerol) |
Corresponding monomer from the polymers
Protein
Carbohydrate (polysaccharide)
nucleic acids (DNA/RNA)

|
Dipole-Dipole |
Interactions between polar molecules (does not include hydrogen bonds) |
|
Hydrogen bonding |
Interactions between polar molecules when hydrogen is bonded to N, O, or F. Hydrogen bonds only occur intermolecularly with N, O, or F that have a lone pair and have a partial negative charge. |
|
Salt bridges |
Interactions between ions |
|
Rank interactions betwen molecules from strongest to weakest |

|
|
Ion-dipole |
Interactions between ions and dipoles (atoms with a partial charge) |
|
London forces |
Stronger between larger molecules, weaker between smaller molecules |
|
What happens to boiling point in relation to the number of carbons in a molecule? |
The more carbons a molecule has, boiling point increases |
|
What is a substituent? |
