and differences in physical
properties (e.g. solubility in
different solvents, odour,
melting point, boiling point)
of hydrocarbons
I can explain the concept of
isomerism in hydrocarbons
and how variations in the
properties of isomers relate
to their structural and
molecular formulae

and products of complete and
incomplete combustion of
hydrocarbons

memorize general formula for alkanes and cycloalkanes
CnH2n+2 and CnH2n - subscript “n” represents number of
carbons in a hydrocarbon
hydrocarbons are non-polar, explain how intermolecular
forces, specifically London dispersion forces impact
physical properties of alkanes and cycloalkanes (e.g.
state at room temp, m.p, b.p., solubility in water,
solubility in benzene (non-polar substance)
“like dissolves like”
alkanes are saturated compounds, very stable, at SATP
reactions are very slow
alkanes only react with reactive substances like halogens
– slow substitution reactions requiring light as a catalyst
alkanes undergo rapid combustion reactions – require a
spark or flame and oxygen
alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons containing at least
one double bond between two carbons, double bond
must be in parent chain
double bond locks molecule in certain position, creating
geometric isomers, called cis (same side) and trans
(opposite side)
alkenes general formula CnH2n
alkynes are unsaturated hydrocarbons containing at least
one triple bond between two carbons, triple bond must be
in parent chain
alkynes general formula CnH2n-2
triple bonds prevents rotation, but also prevent cis-trans
formation
presence of double or triple bonds make alkenes and
alkynes very reactive
complete combustion of hydrocarbon always produces
water and carbon dioxide
incomplete combustion of hydrocarbon produces water
and/or carbon, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide
