The electrons of an atom that are highest in energy and in the outermost orbitals.
Valence Electrons
#2
A hydrocarbon that can undergo addition reactions, meaning it contains a double or a triple bond.
Unsaturated Hydrocarbons
#3
A bond where six electrons are shared between two atoms.
Triple Bond
#4
Molecules that have the same molecular formula and sequence of atoms yet differ in their 3-D orientation.
Stereoisomer
#5
The "3-D" arrangements of hydrocarbons.
Stereochemistry
#6
The ability of electrons to "shuffle," or alternate, between bonds, making the molecule extremely stable. The best example of this is benzene.
Resonance
#7
A polypeptide composed of amino acids bonded together by peptide bonds.
Proteins
#8
Large macromolecules composed of many similar (sometimes identical) smaller molecules, or monomers, linked together.
Polymers
#9
Name the rule that states that atoms will lose, gain, or share electrons in order to achieve a filled valence shell, to complete their octet.
Octet Rule
#10
An atom that has an unshared electron pair.
Nucleophiles
#11
Biological molecules, such as DNA and RNA, composed of a nitrogen base, a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group.
Nucleic Acids
#12
Name the formula that shows the number and kinds of atoms in a molecule.
Molecular Formula
#13
A chemical formula where electrons are represented with dots. Covalent bonds are represented with a line connecting two atoms—the line represents two electrons.
Lewis Structure
#14
A functional group consisting of an internal carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to two other carbon atoms
Ketones
#15
Compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas
Isomer
