The questions in this quiz are suitable for GCSE chemistry students studying addition polymerisation, alcohols and reactions of alkenes. If you struggled with the quiz, don't panic - we've got you!

Alkanes are described as saturated because their carbon atoms are joined by C–C single bonds. They do not contain C=C bonds. The general formula for the alkanes is C n H 2n+2.

The latter part of the year is strongly focused around synthesis and reactivity, and you will begin to apply your understanding of organic reactivity to the synthesis of more challenging targets. You ...

Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds. Most organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen, but they may ...

This is the second course in a two-semester sequence. A functional group approach to organic chemistry is presented, with an emphasis on alkenes, alkynes, aromatic compounds, aldehydes, ketones, ...
