Key Chemistry Terms and definitions covered in this textbook
-
alkanes
Compounds of carbon and hydrogen containing only carbon–carbon single bonds. (Sections 2.9 and 24.2)
-
Anti conformation
A conformation about a single bond in which two groups on adjacent carbons lie at a dihedral angle of 180°.
-
beta sheet
A structural form of protein in which two strands of amino acids are hydrogen-bonded together in a zipperlike configuration. (Section 24.7)
-
Bicycloalkane
An alkane containing two rings that share two carbons
-
Bonding molecular orbital
A molecular orbital in which electrons have a lower energy than they would in isolated atomic orbitals
-
carboxylic acid
A compound that contains the ¬COOH functional group. (Sections 16.10 and 24.4)
-
catenation.
The ability of the atoms of an element to form bonds with one another. (22.3)
-
colligative property
A property of a solvent (vapor-pressure lowering, freezing-point lowering, boiling-point elevation, osmotic pressure) that depends on the total concentration of solute particles present. (Section 13.5)
-
critical pressure (Pc).
The minimum pressure necessary to bring about liquefaction at the critical temperature. (11.8)
-
delocalization
The spreading of a charge or lone pair as described by resonance theory.
-
double helix
The structure for DNA that involves the winding of two DNA polynucleotide chains together in a helical arrangement. The two strands of the double helix are complementary in that the organic bases on the two strands are paired for optimal hydrogen bond interaction. (Section 24.10)
-
heat capacity
The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a sample of matter by 1 °C (or 1 K). (Section 5.5)
-
Infrared (IR) spectroscopy
A spectroscopic technique in which a compound is irradiated with infrared radiation, absorption of which causes covalent bonds to change from a lower vibration state to a higher one. Infrared spectroscopy is particularly valuable for determining the kinds of functional groups present in a molecule.
-
lithium dialkyl cuprate
A nucleophilic compound with the general structureR2CuLi.
-
living polymer
A polymer that isformed via anionic polymerization.
-
nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)
A form of spectroscopy that involves the study of the interaction between electromagnetic radiation and the nuclei of atoms.
-
sigma complex
The positively charged intermediate of an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction.
-
Substitution
A reaction in which an atom or group of atoms in a compound is replaced by another atom or group of atoms.
-
Thermoplastic
A polymer that can be melted and molded into a shape that is retained when it is cooled.
-
Vinylic carbocation
A double-helix model for the secondary structure of a DNA molecule
