Mcgraw Hill Book Hill Book Company
1,599 wordsChemistry has been called the science of what things are. Its intent is the exploration of the nature of the materials that fabricate our physical environment, why they hold the different properties that depict them, how their atomic structure may be fathomed, and how they may be manipulated and changed. Although organic reactions have been conducted by man since the discovery of fire, the science of Organic chemistry did not develop until the turn of the eighteenth century, mainly in France at ...

Carbon Atoms Measuring Cylinder
3,479 wordsComparing Energy Release from the Combustion of Alcohols I am going to investigate the energy released by burning alcohol called the enthalpy of combustion. I will be trying to find out how the number of Carbon atoms the alcohol contains effects the enthalpy change that occurs during combustion. The Alcohols are a series of related organic molecules where each member has the -OH (hydroxyl) group in the molecule. The general formula of an alcohol is: Cn H 2 n+ 1 OH, where n is the number of Carbo...

Amount Of Energy Oxygen Atoms
1,983 wordsPlanning In this investigation I will be burning alcohols to heat up a beaker of water. I will be burning five alcohols, methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol and pentanol. The aim is to find out how much energy is produced when burning these alcohols. An alcohol is a series of organic homologous compounds, with the general formula Cn H n + 1 OH´ . Alcohols react with oxygen in the air to form water and carbon dioxide. The reaction that is involved in burning alcohols is exothermic because ...

Deoxyribose Sugar And A Phosphate Sugar And A Phosphate Group Dna
273 wordsDNA Structure DNA is a double stranded molecule twisted into a helix. Each spiraling strand is comprised of a sugar phosphate backbone and attached bases connected to a complimentary strand. The complimentary strand is connected by non-covalent hydrogen bonding between paired bases. The bases are adenine, thymine, cosine, and gaining. The fundamental building block of DNA is the nucleotide. The nucleotide has three parts. A nitrogen-containing pyrimidine or purine base, a deoxyribose sugar, and ...

Carbon Atom Molecular Formula
2,405 words3. 2 Lots of carbon compounds seem to be isomers. What is an isomer? In organic chemistry, there are many examples of different compounds which have the same molecular formula as each other, but different arrangements of the atoms in their molecules, (different structural formulae). These compounds are said to be isomers of one another. Isomerism also occurs in inorganic chemistry, but it is less common. There are two types of isomerism common in organic chemistry: structural isomerism and stere...

Due To The Fact Hydrogen Bonds
1,126 wordsProperties of Cellulose Cellulose is a complex carbohydrate, or polysaccharide consisting of 3, 000 or more glucose units. The basic structural component of plant cell walls, cellulose comprises about 33 percent of all vegetable matter (90 percent of cotton and 50 percent of wood are cellulose) and is the most abundant of all naturally occurring organic compounds A natural polymer made up from D-glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6) monomer units, cellulose contains glucose units which link together to form lo...
