Hmmm, I seem to remember something about that....... METALS NONMETALS Why covalent bonds? Electronegativity: ·The ability to pull electrons away from another element ·elements in the NE part of the periodic table have stronger pull
Properties of Covalent Compounds ·Covalent compounds generally have much lower melting and boiling points than ionic compounds. ·Covalent compounds don't conduct electricity in water. ·Covalent compounds aren't usually very soluble in water. ·Covalent compounds tend to be more flammable than ionic compounds.

TRY IT C4H10
ANOTHER WAY C6H14 count how many CH2's there are
HOMOLOGOUS SERIES ·a series of organic compounds with a similar general formula ·possessing similar chemical properties due to the presence of the same functional group, and ·shows a gradation in physical properties as a result of increase in molecular size and mass
ALKANES ·straight-chain or branched-chain hydrocarbons in which all the bonds between carbon atoms are single covalent bonds. ·"saturated" ·general formula is CnH2n+2 where "n" is the # of carbons ·end with the suffix " ane "
Naming Straight Chain Alkanes (CnH2n+2) Prefix is determined by the number of carbon atoms in the chain: Suffix is "ane" meth C1 CH4 eth C2 C2H6 prop C3 but C4 pent C5 hex C6 hept C7 oct C8 non C9 dec C10
Naming Branched Alkanes Functional Group Functional groups are specific atoms, ions, or groups of atoms having consistent properties. A functional group makes up part of a larger molecule. In branched alkanes the functional group in an "ALKYL" group yl ending methyl ethyl CH3 C2H5 one less Hydrogen!
Naming Branched Chain Alkanes http://www.ausetute.com.au/nambanes.html · Name and number the longest carbon chain as for a straight chain alkane. · Identify each of the branches (side-chains). · Use the lowest number combinations for the branches (side-chains). · Name each branch or side-chain (alkyl group) : methyl CH3 ethyl C2H5 propyl C3H7 · For more than 1 of the same alkyl group use: di = 2 tri = 3 tetra = 4 · Use commas between numbers, eg, 1,2 or 2,3 · Use hyphens between numbers and words, eg, 2-methyl or 2,3-dimethyl · If there is more than 1 type of branch or side-chain, arrange their names alphabetically, ie, ethyl groups are named before methyl groups which are named before propyl groups
