Hydrocarbon Compounds 20 Hydrocarbon Compounds Turkmenistan has some of the world’s largest deposits of natural gas. This natural gas deposit in the city of Darvaza has been burning for over three decades! 708 S ON CU O F TEKS CHEMYSTERY 7B Nose for Hire Walking home from school one day, Anthony spotted a poster soliciting participants for a smell test. The poster offered participants “$50 for less than an hour of your time.” So he decided to go for it. When Anthony reported for the study, after filling out some paperwork, a researcher asked him to smell two chemical samples. The first one smelled like a freshly cut orange. The second had an odor that reminded him of pine trees. Anthony was curious. “What am I smelling?” he asked. “Limonene,” the researcher answered. “What about the second one?” Anthony asked. The researcher gave the same reply: “Limonene.” Anthony was perplexed. How could two substances, both with the name limonene, smell so different? As you read about hydrocarbons, think about how you could solve this mystery by writing structural formulas for these two covalent compounds. Take a video field trip with the Untamed Science crew to learn more about the relationship between structural formulas and physical properties.

Hydrocarbon Compounds 709 2 0.1 Hydrocarbons In this lesson, you will learn how to name hydrocarbon compounds using nomenclature rules established by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (TEKS 7A) and how to write their chemical and structural formulas (TEKS 7B). Also TEKS 7C, 7E, 2H. CHEMISTRY & YOU Q: Why are some fossil fuels gases, some liquids, and some solids? The gasoline used to fuel this motorcycle is a liquid at STP. So are the diesel fuel used in trucks and buses and the kerosene used in lanterns. Other fuels are gases or solids. For example, the fuel used in a furnace might be natural gas or a solid such as coal. All these fuels contain mixtures of compounds called hydrocar- bons. In this lesson, you will learn about the structure and properties of hydrocarbons. Key Questions Organic Chemistry Why does a carbon atom and Hydrocarbons TEKS 7B, 7A, 7C, 7E form four covalent bonds? Why does a carbon atom form four covalent bonds?

It is sometimes called marsh gas because it is formed by the action of bacteria on decaying plants in swamps and other marshy areas. Livestock and termites also emit substantial quantities of methane as a product of digestion. 710 Recall that a carbon atom has four valence electrons and a hydrogen atom READING SUPPORT has one valence electron. So one carbon atom can form a single covalent bond Build Study Skills: Cluster with four hydrogen atoms as shown in the electron dot formula below.

How Because carbon has four valence electrons, a carbon atom always will this diagram help you forms four covalent bonds. Remembering this principle will help you to learn about hydrocarbons? write correct structures for organic compounds. Methane is not typical of the vast majority of organic compounds because there isn’t a bond between carbon atoms in a methane molecule. But there is a carbon-carbon bond in ethane. In an ethane molecule, two carbon atoms share a pair of electrons. The remaining six valence electrons form bonding pairs with the electrons from six hydrogen atoms. H H 2 C + 6H C C + 6H H C C H Carbon Hydrogen H H atoms atoms Ethane molecule The ability of carbon to form stable carbon-carbon bonds is one reason that carbon can form so many different compounds. Representing Hydrocarbons Table 20.1 shows the structural formulas, ball-and-stick models, and space-filling models for methane and ethane. Structural formulas are a convenient way to show the arrangement of atoms in a molecule. But two-dimensional structural formulas do not provide accu- rate information about how the atoms in a molecule are arranged in space. Three-dimensional molecular models represent the shapes of molecules more accurately. Throughout this chapter and the next, ball-and-stick models and space-filling models will be used along with structural formulas to represent organic molecules. Hybrid orbital theory and VSEPR theory are used to pre- dict the molecular shapes. Table 20.1 Different Ways of Representing Hydrocarbons IUPAC name Structural formula Ball-and-stick model Space-filling model H Methane H C H H H H Ethane H C C H H H Hydrocarbon Compounds 711 Properties of Hydrocarbons The electron pair in a carbon-hydrogen bond or a carbon-carbon bond is shared almost equally by the nuclei of the atoms forming the bond. Thus, hydrocarbons are nonpolar molecules. The attractions between nonpolar molecules are weak van der Waals forces. So hydrocarbons with low molar masses tend to be gases or liquids that boil at a low temperature. Recall the general rule “like dissolves like.” Two nonpolar compounds will form a solution, as will two polar compounds. But a nonpolar compound and a polar compound will not form a solution. For example, because oil is a mixture of hydrocarbons, oil and water do not mix. So oil will float on top of water, as shown in Figure 20.1. Alkanes TEKS 7A, 7B What are two possible arrangements of carbon atoms in an alkane? Methane and ethane are examples of alkanes. An alkane is a hydrocarbon in which there are only single covalent bonds. In any alkane, all the carbon- Figure 20.1 Oil and Water carbon bonds are single covalent bonds, and all the other bonds are carbon- The nonpolar molecules in this cooking oil are not attracted to the hydrogen bonds.

  • All About the Chemical Bonds and Compounds
    All about the Chemical Bonds and Compounds Video Transcript Almost everything we see or touch in daily life – such as the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and so on – is the result of chemical bonding. In other words, the world around us is generally not composed of isolated atoms. Instead, atoms bond to one another to form molecules and hence chemical compounds, which make up the world around us. Chemical bonding is the physical process that causes atoms and molecules to be attracted to each other and held together in more stable chemical compounds. There are three primary types of chemical bonds and compounds: Ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and metallic bonds. With ionic bonds, electrons are exchanged or transferred between atoms. They exist in ionic compounds. Generally, they’re a metal and a nonmetal – sodium chloride, magnesium oxide, etc. With covalent bonds, electrons are shared among the atoms. They exist in covalent and molecular compounds. Generally, they are nonmetals – carbon dioxide, dihydrogen monoxide, etc. With metallic bonds, a pool of electrons roam freely across entire molecule. They exist in metallic compounds. Generally, they’re metals and alloys – copper, gold, etc. A chemical compound is a group of two or more different atoms that are attracted to each other. Compounds can be divided into ionic compounds, covalent compounds, and metallic compounds. This table lists some key properties of each. Be aware that it is the valence electrons (those in the outermost level) that are involved in bonding. Atoms try to fill their outer energy levels because it’s energetically favorable for atoms to be in that configuration and it makes them stable.

  • Chapter 10 – Chemical Reactions Notes
    Chapter 8 – Chemical Reactions Notes Chemical Reactions: Chemical reactions are processes in which the atoms of one or more substances are rearranged to form different chemical compounds. How to tell if a chemical reaction has occurred (recap): Temperature changes that can’t be accounted for. o Exothermic reactions give off energy (as in fire). o Endothermic reactions absorb energy (as in a cold pack). Spontaneous color change. o This happens when things rust, when they rot, and when they burn. Appearance of a solid when two liquids are mixed. o This solid is called a precipitate. Formation of a gas / bubbling, as when vinegar and baking soda are mixed. Overall, the most important thing to remember is that a chemical reaction produces a whole new chemical compound. Just changing the way that something looks (breaking, melting, dissolving, etc) isn’t enough to qualify something as a chemical reaction! Balancing Equations Notes: Things to keep in mind when looking at the recipes for chemical reactions: 1) The stuff before the arrow is referred to as the “reactants” or “reagents”, and the stuff after the arrow is called the “products.” 2) The number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the arrow. Even though there may be different numbers of molecules, the number of atoms of each element needs to remain the same to obey the law of conservation of mass. 3) The numbers in front of the formulas tell you how many molecules or moles of each chemical are involved in the reaction. 4) Equations are nothing more than chemical recipes.

  • 1 5. Chemical Bonding
    5. Chemical Bonding: The Covalent Bond Model 5.1 The Covalent Bond Model Almost all chemical substances are found as aggregates of atoms in the form of molecules and ions produced through the reactions of various atoms of elements except the noble-gas elements which are stable mono-atomic gases. Chemical bond is a term that describes the attractive force that is holding the atoms of the same or different kind of atoms in forming a molecule or ionic solid that has more stability than the individual atoms. Depending on the kinds of atoms participating in the interaction there seem to be three types of bonding: Gaining or Losing Electrons: Ionic bonding: Formed between many ions formed by metal and nonmetallic elements. Sharing Electrons: Covalent bonding: sharing of electrons between two atoms of non-metals. Metallic Bonding: sharing of electrons between many atoms of metals.
