Class 10 Chemistry Chapter Hydrocarbons Full Chapter Notes

Chapter: Hydrocarbons Introduction: Definition of Hydrocarbons: Only carbon and hydrogen atoms containing organic compounds are called as hydrocarbons. Types of Hydrocarbons: Hydrocarbons are of three types namely; Alkanes, Alkenes and Alkynes. These three hydrocarbons can be differentiated from each other on the basis of the type of covalent bond present between their carbon atoms. However, …

Classification of Organic Compounds Based on Structure

Classification of Organic Compounds Organic compounds are hydrocarbons and its derivatives. Due to the unique properties of organic compounds that carbon is not only linked with carbon but also with other elements like nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur etc to form a long chain or ring compounds. Therefore, organic compounds are in millions. To study organic compounds …

Alkyne Nomenclature | Common vs IUPAC System – Organic Chemistry

Alkynes Alkynes are unsaturated hydrocarbons which have at least one carbon-carbon triple bond and a general molecular formula CnH2n-2.  Their functional group is – C ≡ C –. Alkyne Nomenclature: Common System: In the common system, alkynes are considered alkyl derivatives of acetylene (the smallest member of the family). First names of alkyl groups present …

Preparation of Alkenes – Class 12 Chemistry Chapter Hydrocarbons Notes

Methods of Preparation of Alkenes are as follow: By Dehydration of Alcohols: The removal of water is called dehydration. Alcohols when heated with dehydrating agents like H2SO4 or Al2O3 or P4O10 (also written as P2O5) they lose water so they are dehydrated to corresponding alkenes. The ease of dehydration in alcohols is in the order …
