Modern Chemistry 1st Edition - Solutions by Chapter

Polymers that are formed via cationic addition, anionic addition, or free-radical addition.

A hydrocarbon that contains one or more benzene rings. (24.1)

A reaction for which the reagent necessary to catalyze the reaction is produced by the reaction itself.

The slow oxidation of organic compounds that occurs in the presence of atmospheric oxygen.

A means of protecting a metal against corrosion by making it the cathode in a voltaic cell. This can be achieved by attaching a more easily oxidized metal, which serves as an anode, to the metal to be protected. (Section 20.8)

A reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen, usually with the release of heat and light, to produce a flame. (4.4)

The species formed when an acid transfers a proton to a base

A phenomenon observed most commonly for nonequivalent protons connected to adjacent carbon atoms in which the multiplicity of each signal is affected by the other.

A crystal structure where the atoms are packed together as closely as possible. The close-packed layers adopt a two-layer repeating pattern, which leads to a primitive hexagonal unit cell. (Section 12.3)

When signal splitting occurs in 1H NMR spectroscopy, the distance (in hertz) between the individual peaks of a signal.

A reaction in which two substances react through an exchange of their component ions: AX + BY ¡ AY + BX. Precipitation and acid–base neutralization reactions are examples of metathesis reactions. (Section 4.2)

The conjugate base of phenol or a substituted phenol.

The removal of an electron from an atom or molecule by absorption of light. (Section 18.2)

An organohalide in which the alpha (a) position is connected to only one alkyl group.

A characteristic that gives a sample of matter its unique identity. (Section 1.1)

The branch of science that studies the interaction of matter and radiation.

The amount of time required for a compound to exit from a gas chromatograph.

Defined as 760 torr or, in SI units, 101.325 kPa. (Section 10.2)

A prefi x meaning across from.

A hydrocarbon containing one or more carbon-carbon double or triple bonds. The three classes of unsaturated hydrocarbons are alkenes, alkynes, and arenes
