  2. Saturated and unsaturated compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturated_and_unsaturated...

    alkyne (unsaturated) vs alkane (saturated) arene (unsaturated) vs cycloalkane (saturated) For organic compounds containing heteroatoms (other than C and H), the list of unsaturated groups is long but some common types are: carbonyl, e.g. ketones, aldehydes, esters, carboxylic acids (unsaturated) vs alcohol or ether (saturated)

  3. Solution (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_(chemistry)

    Making a saline water solution by dissolving table salt in water.The salt is the solute and the water the solvent. In chemistry, a solution is defined by IUPAC as "A liquid or solid phase containing more than one substance, when for convenience one (or more) substance, which is called the solvent, is treated differently from the other substances, which are called solutes.

  4. Saturation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation

    Unsaturated fat or unsaturated fatty acid; Non-susceptibility of an organometallic compound to oxidative addition; Saturation of protein binding sites; Saturation of enzymes with a substrate; Saturation of a solute in a solution, as related to the solute's maximum solubility at equilibrium

  5. Aliphatic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliphatic_compound

    Aliphatic compounds can be saturated, joined by single bonds (), or unsaturated, with double bonds or triple bonds ().If other elements (heteroatoms) are bound to the carbon chain, the most common being oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and chlorine, it is no longer a hydrocarbon, and therefore no longer an aliphatic compound.

  6. Iodine value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine_value

    Such a triglyceride has a high iodine value (approx. 119). Below, the reaction product after the addition of four equivalents of iodine or bromine to the four C=C double bonds of the unsaturated fatty acid residues. The determination of iodine value is a particular example of iodometry. A solution of iodine I 2 is yellow/brown in

  7. Solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent

    A solution is a homogeneous mixture consisting of a solute dissolved into a solvent. The solute is the substance that is being dissolved, while the solvent is the dissolving medium. Solutions can be formed with many different types and forms of solutes and solvents.

  8. α,β-Unsaturated carbonyl compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Α,β-Unsaturated_carbonyl...

    An α,β-unsaturated acid is a type of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound that consists of an alkene conjugated to a carboxylic acid. [3] The simplest example is acrylic acid ( CH 2 =CHCO 2 H ). These compounds are prone to polymerization, giving rise to the large area of polyacrylate plastics.

  9. Molality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molality

    In chemistry, molality is a measure of the amount of solute in a solution relative to a given mass of solvent. This contrasts with the definition of molarity which is based on a given volume of solution. A commonly used unit for molality is the moles per kilogram (mol/kg). A solution of concentration 1 mol/kg is also sometimes denoted as 1 molal.
