What elements are considered as hydrocarbon derivatives?

Hydrocarbon derivatives include compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms, but also other elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, halogens (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine), sulfur, and phosphorus. Examples of hydrocarbon derivatives include alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amines, amides, halogenated hydrocarbons (such as chloroform), thiols, and thioketones.

Why is Ibuprofen soluble in diethyl ether?

Both molecules have a hydrophobic hydrocarbon-chain and ibuprofen has a hydrocarbon ring structure. This makes them very similar along with the polarity and structure in this case "like dissolves like".


What makes ethanol a saturated hydrocarbon?

It is a saturated hydrocarbon because it contains no double bonds in its structure. The general formula for alcohol series is CnH2n+1OH. For example, structure of ethanol is as follows:- H3C-CH2-OH

What is a cyclic hydrocarbon?

It is a ring formed carbon skeleton. The smallest possible cyclic hydrocarbon is cyclopropane (triangular C3H6) together with cyclobutane both being rather unstable (degration to linear propene and 1-butene). Five and six membered rings are quite common. The most 'famous' cyclic hydrocarbon is the aromatics-group of benzene, which is the cyclic 'honeycomb' formed 1,3,5-cyclohexatriene C6H6 (and derivatives).


1 Why does alcohols have properties intermediate between hydrocarbons and water?

Because the structure is intermediate between water and hydrocarbon. Chemical reactivity is determined by structure. It does what it does because of what it is, it is "kinda like" water it "acts somewhat like water ", it is somewhat like a hydrocarbon it acts like or chemically reacts somewhat like a hydrocarbon.
