Alcohols
Organic compounds that contain one or more hydroxyl groups (–OH) attached to a carbon atom in a hydrocarbon chain.
Alkanes
Hydrocarbons (compounds made only of carbon and hydrogen), which contain only single bonds between carbon atoms (C–C)
Alkenes
Hydrocarbons that contain at least one carbon–carbon double bond (C=C).
Colloid
A colloid is a mixture where particles are larger than in a solution, but still small enough to remain dispersed and not settle quickly.
Covalent bonding
Occurs between non-metal atoms that share electrons so each achieves a full outer shell.
Ionic bonding
Occurs when electrons are transferred from a metal atom to a non-metal atom.
Solution
A solution is a homogeneous mixture where the particles of the solute are completely dissolved in the solvent.
Suspension
A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture with large particles that are temporarily suspended in a liquid or gas.
