FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Functional Group Noun
[funk-shun-ul groop]
Back
Functional Group
A specific group of atoms or bonds within a molecule responsible for its characteristic chemical reactions and properties.
Example: This diagram shows the general structure of an alcohol (R-OH), where the hydroxyl group (-OH) is the functional group attached to a carbon chain (R).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Hydrocarbon Noun
[hy-dro-kar-bun]
Back
Hydrocarbon
An organic compound consisting entirely of hydrogen and carbon atoms, forming the structural framework of many organic molecules.
Example: This image shows a hydrocarbon molecule (methane) using a 3D model, its 2D structure, and its chemical formula (CH4), illustrating it is made of hydrogen and carbon atoms.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Alkane Noun
[al-kayn]
Back
Alkane
A saturated hydrocarbon containing only single covalent bonds between its carbon atoms, making it relatively unreactive.
Example: This image shows a model of methane (CH₄), the simplest alkane, with one carbon atom bonded to four hydrogen atoms.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Substitution Reaction Noun
[sub-sti-too-shun ree-ak-shun]
Back
Substitution Reaction
A chemical reaction where one functional group or atom in a chemical compound is replaced by another functional group or atom.
Example: This diagram shows a substitution reaction where one part of a molecule (the blue circle) is replaced by another part (the orange circle).
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Halogenation Noun
[ha-luh-juh-nay-shun]
Back
Halogenation
A chemical reaction that involves introducing one or more halogen atoms into a compound, often by replacing a hydrogen atom.
Example: This diagram shows a halogen, Bromine, being added to an Ethylene molecule. The two Bromine atoms attach to the carbon atoms, changing the molecule's structure.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Alkyl Halide Noun
[al-kil hay-lyd]
Back
Alkyl Halide
An organic compound derived from an alkane by replacing at least one hydrogen atom with a halogen atom.
Example: This image shows four examples of alkyl halides, which are molecules where a halogen atom (like Br or Cl) is attached to a carbon-based group (alkyl group).
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Halogen Noun
[hal-uh-jen]
Back
Halogen
Any of the five nonmetallic elements that constitute Group 17 of the periodic table, known for their high reactivity.
Example: This image shows the elements in the Halogen group, like Fluorine and Chlorine, and illustrates that they exist as diatomic molecules (two atoms bonded together).
