19 of 42
What is the definition of an electrophile?
An electron pair acceptor
20 of 42
What is the definition of a nucleophile?
An electron pair donator
21 of 42
What is the difference between a radical and an ion?
A radical has the same ratio of protons:electrons so isn't charged.
22 of 42
What is a structural isomer?
compounds with the same molecular formula but different structural formula
23 of 42
What is a stereoisomer?
Compounds with the same molecular and structural formula but a different arrangement in space?
24 of 42
What is a pi bond?
Overlapping p orbitals
25 of 42
What are some properties of pi bonds?
Cannot rotate and weak
26 of 42
What is a sigma bond?
Overlapping s orbitals
27 of 42
Why aren't alkanes very reactive?
High bond enthalpy and low polarity of sigma bonds (alkanes don't have pi bonds)
28 of 42

a* + b*
29 of 42
a-b (homolytic fission) -> ?
a+ (positive ion) + **b- (Negative ion)
30 of 42
What does the term saturated mean?
No double bonds
31 of 42
What are the products when alkanes undergo complete combustion?

33 of 42
How does the CIP priority rule work in E/Z stereoisomers?
The group with the highest molar mass is the priority
