1 Notes #2: Hydrocarbons WCHS Chemistry

2 HYDROCARBONS = compounds that contain ONLY carbon and hydrogen.
A → E → Y ALPHABETICAL ORDER! = compounds that contain ONLY carbon and hydrogen. When they contain as many hydrogen atoms as possible, they are called saturated. Every carbon wants 4 bonds! Alkanes = Alkenes = Alkynes = Contain ONLY single bonds Contain at least 1 double bond Contain at least 1 triple bond

3 NAMING OF ALKANES! # of carbons Chemical Formula Name
