- A bond formed from the electrostatic attraction between ions with different charges. This typically consists of a metal (cation) and a nonmetal (anion). A metal loses electrons to form a cation and some non-metal gains those electrons to form an anion.
- It occurs when a hydrogen atom has an electromagnetic attractive interaction with an electronegative atom.
- An organic molecule containing only hydrogen and carbon atoms.
- An atom, or group of atoms, that is responsible for reactivity of the molecule it is a part of.
- A neutral atom containing an unpaired electron.
- A hydrocarbon containing a carbonyl (C=O) adjacent to an ether (C-O-C) linkage.
- A hydrocarbon containing a C-O-C unit.
- A molecule that seeks out electrons, also known as a Lewis Acid or an electron pair acceptor.
- Electronegativity is a measure of the attraction an atom has for electrons.
- A bond where four electrons are shared between two atoms.
- The process by which proteins lose their 3-D (tertiary and secondary) structure by application of an external stress, most often heat.
- The removal of water from a molecule.
- Isomers that differ in the order the atoms are placed. They have the same number of atoms, just in a different order.
- An atom with four different atoms or groups attached to it.
