  2. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    A completely polar bond is more correctly called an ionic bond, and occurs when the difference between electronegativities is large enough that one atom actually takes an electron from the other. The terms "polar" and "nonpolar" are usually applied to covalent bonds, that is, bonds where the polarity is not complete. To determine the polarity ...

  3. Bond order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_order

    The bond order itself is the number of electron pairs (covalent bonds) between two atoms. [2] For example, in diatomic nitrogen N≡N, the bond order between the two nitrogen atoms is 3 (triple bond). In acetylene H–C≡C–H, the bond order between the two carbon atoms is also 3, and the C–H bond order is 1 (single bond).

  4. Alcohol (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_(chemistry)

    In general, the hydroxyl group makes alcohols polar. Those groups can form hydrogen bonds to one another and to most other compounds. Owing to the presence of the polar OH alcohols are more water-soluble than simple hydrocarbons. Methanol, ethanol, and propanol are miscible in water. 1-Butanol, with a four-carbon chain, is moderately soluble.

  5. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    The polar water molecules surround themselves around ions in water and the energy released during the process is known as hydration enthalpy. The interaction has its immense importance in justifying the stability of various ions (like Cu 2+) in water. An ion–induced dipole force consists of an ion and a non-polar molecule interacting.

  6. Methyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_group

    It is a very stable group in most molecules. While the methyl group is usually part of a larger molecule, bonded to the rest of the molecule by a single covalent bond (−CH 3), it can be found on its own in any of three forms: methanide anion (CH − 3), methylium cation (CH + 3) or methyl radical (CH • 3).

  7. Acetylacetone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylacetone

    The equilibrium constant tends to be high in nonpolar solvents; when K keto→enol is equal or greater than 1, the enol form is favoured. The keto form becomes more favourable in polar, hydrogen-bonding solvents, such as water. [7] The enol form is a vinylogous analogue of a carboxylic acid. [citation needed]

  9. IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    The numbers for that type of side chain will be grouped in ascending order and written before the name of the side-chain. If there are two side-chains with the same alpha carbon, the number will be written twice. Example: 2,2,3-trimethyl- . If there are both double bonds and triple bonds, "en" (double bond) is written before "yne" (triple bond).
