Macromolecules Macromolecules The topic of macromolecules lends itself well to illustrate three integral themes woven throughout the text and course: There is a natural hierarchy of structural level in biological organization As one moves up the hierarchy, new properties emerge because of interactions among subunits at the lower levels Form fits function. Most macromolecules are polymers Polymer = (Poly = many; mer = part) Large molecule consisting of many identical or similar subunits connected together. Monomer = Subunit or building block molecule of a polymer. Macromolecule = (Macro large) Large organic polymer. Formation of macromolecules from smaller building block molecules represents another level in the hierarchy of biological organization.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY ISU TOPIC: ALKANES Submitted to: Mr. Ram Submitted by: Patrick Do Course Code: SCH4U1 - 02 Date: Thursday February 14, 2013 Alkanes have no functional groups. They are essentially made up of carbon and hydrogen bonded together through single bonds. Alkanes can appear as alkyl groups. The general structure of an alkane is CnH2n+2. a) Straight chain alkanes: Number of Carbons Name of Compound Condensed Formula 1 Methane CH4 2 Ethane CH3 - CH3 3 Propane CH3 - CH2 - CH3 4 Butane CH3 - CH3 - CH3 - CH3 5 Pentane CH3 - CH3 - CH3 - CH3 - CH3 b) Branched alkanes: Number of Carbons Name of Compound Condensed Formula 4 Isobutane (2-methyl propane) CH3 | CH3 - CH - CH3 5 Isopentane
