I. Functional Groups
A. Functional group: An atom or group of atoms attached to mainly hydrocarbons1. Responsible for the specific properties of an
organic compound 2. Types of functional groups – see chart
provided in class

B. Type of Organic Reactions1. Substitution Reactions - one or more atoms
replace another atom or group of atoms in a molecule
methane chlorine chloromethane hydrogen
chloride

2. Addition Reactions - an atom or molecule is added to an unsaturated molecule and increases the saturation of the molecule

II. PolymersA. Polymers - large chainlike molecules made
from many small molecules called monomers1. Simplest polymer – polyethylene2. Polyethylene results from addition
polymerization.

B. Condensation Polymerization - two molecules (monomers) or parts of the same molecule combine 1. Addition of more monomers creates polymer
chains2. A small molecule (often water) is released for
each addition of a monomer to the polymer chain • Nylon

• Condensation of amino acids in protein formation
• A polymer of amino acids (many condensed into a long chain) is referred to as a polypeptide
