100
The number of bonds carbon can form AND who it can form bonds with.
What is 4 AND almost every other element?
100
The three fossil fuels.
What are coal, petroleum and natural gas?
100
The three polymer structures.
What are linear, branched, and cross-linked?
100
Two examples of synthetic polymers.
What are nylon, rubber, tires...
100
The two elements in hydrocarbons
What are Carbon and Hydrogen?
200
Organic compounds all come from these.
What are living things?
200
The solid fossil fuel which also burns the dirtiest.
What is coal?
200
This polymer structure is the most dense.
What is linear?
200
This increases tensile strength.
What is a longer carbon chain/more monomers/more Carbons?
200
The smallest hydrocarbon
What is methane?
300
The type of bonds carbon forms; also the type of bonds in polymers.
What is covalent?
300
The reason incomplete combustion happens
What is lack of oxygen?
300
This polymer structure can be both elastic and rigid.
What is cross-linked
300
Two reasons using plastics is harmful.
What are killing marine animals, filling landfills, toxic when burned, hard to dispose off, do not biodegrade...
300
The three shapes of hydrocarbon molecules
What are straight chain, branched chain, and ring?
400
Almost all organic compounds contain this.
What is Carbon?
400
The equation for COMPLETE combustion
What is OXYGEN + FUEL = CO2 + water + energy
400
This polymer structure is not as dense and is flexible.
What is branched?
400
An advantage of using plastics to build things.
What is lighter, cheaper, doesn't react, lasts long...
400
The hydrocarbons found in Natural Gas (at least 2)
What are Methane, Ethane, Propane and Isomers of Butane?
500
The name for hydrocarbons with single bonds; double bonds; triple bonds.
What are alkanes, alkenes and alkynes?
500
The equation for INCOMPLETE combustion (2 reactants, 2 products)
What is OXYGEN + FUEL = CO + WATER + energy
500
The difference between thermosets and elastomers.
What is the amount of cross-linking?
500
Three reasons why we make synthetic polymers.
What is don't use natural resources, don't have to import, can make with many characteristics, cheaper...
500
The types of hydrocarbons found in Coal
What are large aromatic hydrocarbons?
