12. According to the definition of organic compounds on Wikipedia: An organic compound is any member of a large class of gaseous, liquid, or solid chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon. Carbonates, simple oxides of carbon, and cyanide molecules do have carbon, but they are not regarded as organic.
Mar 15, 2019 · $\begingroup$ A compound A can react fast with a compound B to give C (slow) and with compound D to give E (fast). The Gibbs free energy of formation of A is the same on both reactions but the reactivity (which is reflected on the activation energy) will depend on which coumpound A is reacting with (B or D) i.e. in the specific reaction. $\endgroup$
This answer has been awarded bounties worth 50 reputation by Pink. I think these general rules work: If there is an spX3 s p X 3 hybridized carbon (or nitrogen), the molecular is NOT planar. 2) If there are no spX3 s p X 3 hybridized carbons (or nitrogens), and there is only one spX2 s p X 2 hybridized atom (carbon or nitrogen), it will be planar.
Feb 6, 2015 · 1 Answer. The short answer is a variety of pi-conjugated materials. A huge variety of compounds, both small molecules, oligomers, polymers, and organometallic species have been used. Key requirements for the emissive material is a high efficiency emission process, either fluorescence or phosphorescence. Some of the first compounds were simply ...
Sep 27, 2014 · Simple sugars have the molecular formula CXn(HX2O)Xn C X n (H X 2 O) X n, where n is at least 3. They also have to be capable of forming an aldehyde or ketone carbonyl group. For example, in glucose the cyclic forms predominate, but there is an isomer with a carbonyl group. Whereas compounds in the inositol family fit the molecular formula ...
Jul 11, 2014 · UC Davis- Any compound containing carbon atom(s) is classified as an organic compound; Trying to pull the best from each of these while still keeping it simple, perhaps a good definition of an organic compound would be - any covalent compound containing, at least, carbon and hydrogen. Everything else would be inorganic.
1. Volatility depends on four factors for organic compounds: 1) Branched chained hydrocarbons are more volatile than straight chained hydrocarbons. 2) The more branched an hydrocarbon is the more volatile it is. 3) Depending on the bonds i.e hydrogen bond, dipole-dipole intermolecular bond and van der Waals' forces.
Oct 19, 2014 · This one is quite strong, but isn't found for every compound out there. Basically, it is when a highly polarized $\ce{H-X}$ bond can be formed, where $\ce{X}$ can be oxygen, nitrogen, chlorine or some other electronegative atom (with respect to carbon). The hydrogen that is sandwiched in the hydrogen bond has to be (formally) bonded to such an electronegative atom as well, otherwise it wouldn ...
Oct 16, 2015 · However, I am not aware of any definition of organic compound that would exclude the biomacromolecules and deem them ‘inorganic’. So unless your definition of organic is extremely exotic, they are included. (And I cannot imagine an exotic definition of organic compound that would not include lipids, anyway.)
Jul 14, 2017 · According to metamerism in polyvalent functional groups, if both alkyl groups' around functional group are different then they are considered as metamers but in few books it is given that if one of the alkyl group is different then it is a metamer. In my opinion, for e.g. diethyl ether and methyl propyl ether are metamers.
