Document Summary
Single or double bonds between c "s form the backbone of compounds. Nomenclature ane : denotes single bonds ene : denotes double bonds. Iso - iwhenzcavbonsarebondedto another carbon forming a branch which isanisomerofthe straight chain compound. Yl implies that it"s a group attached to a compound. Nomenclature this group is important in determining whether ornotagene will be expressed it makes the dna less accessible and also less likely that the gene will be transcribed. Electrons are shared equally mhydrocavbun structures theyre nonpolar and not very reactive. I deft structures that are bonded to the carbon chain. Usually bonds between carbon and oxygen , nitrogen , sulphur , or phosphate groups. C- c groups and c- 0 groups are oxidized or reduced depending on the electrons around the carbon atom. Phosphoric acid is hzpou , one proton is lost at a low ph , but hzpoy. " hp042 has a pka of 6. 8.
