Answer:
Any of a vast family of chemical compounds in which one or more carbon atoms are covalently connected to atoms of other elements, the most frequent of which being hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen.
Explanation:
- Carbides, carbonates, and cyanides are among the few carbon-containing chemicals that are not categorised as organic. See chemical compound for further information.
- A homologous series is a sequence of compounds having the same functional group and comparable chemical characteristics that might be branched or unbranched, or vary by -CH2 in organic chemistry.
- This can refer to the length of a carbon chain, such as in straight-chained alkanes (paraffins), or the number of monomers in a homopolymer like amylose.
- Compounds in a homologous series often have a fixed set of functional groups, resulting in chemical and physical characteristics that are comparable.
- (The fundamental straight-chained alcohols, for example, have a hydroxyl at the end of the carbon chain.)
- These qualities often fluctuate over time, and the variations are frequently explained by fluctuations in molecule size and mass.
- The term "homologous series" is also applied to any set of molecules with similar structures or that have the same functional group, such as alkanes (both straight and branched), alkenes (olefins), polysaccharides, and so on. If the members can't be organised in a linoleum.
