Properties of Alkanes
Long, unbranched alkanes tend to have higher melting
points, boiling points, and enthalpies of vaporization than
their branched isomers
Cycloalkanes: ring alkanes; made up of CH2 groups
General formula: CnH2n
cyclohexane
“boat”
“chair”
Unsaturated Aliphatic Hydrocarbons
Alkenes: carbon-carbon double bond (sp2 hybridized)
Alkynes: carbon-carbon triple bond (sp hybridized)
CHCH
(acetylene)
CH2=CH2
(ethylene)
IUPAC Nomenclature for Aliphatic Hydrocarbons
Straight-chain alkanes - name ends in -ane
Branched alkane - side chain is a “substituent”
 name the substituent formed by the removal of one H atom
from an alkane by changing the ending from -ane to -yl
 name of the alkane is derived from the longest continuous
carbon chain
 to indicate the position of the substituent, the C atoms in
the longest chain are numbered, starting at the end that will
give the lowest number for the position of the first attached
group
 use prefixes di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, etc. to indicate the
number
 substituents are listed in alphabetical order (disregard the
prefix)

Alkenes and Alkynes
Double bonds - change the “ane” suffix to “ene”
Triple bonds - change the “ane” to “yne”
Position of the multiple bond is given by the number of the
first C atom in the multiple bond

1) Oxidation Reactions
CH4(g) + 2 O2(g)  CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)
DHo = -890 kJ
Break the strong C-H bond, but replaced by two C=O bonds
(mean bond enthalpy of C=O is 743 kJ/mol). Also O-H bond is
strong (463 kJ/mol)
