This document contains information about laboratory experiments in general organic chemistry. It includes three experiments on properties of organic compounds, hydrocarbons, and alkyl halides. The experiments provide objectives, materials, procedures, and questions to answer. Students are asked to classify compounds as organic or inorganic, identify hydrocarbon types from formulas, and list examples of alkyl halides with their names, formulas, and uses. The purpose is for students to learn to differentiate types of organic molecules and practice chemical nomenclature.

EXPERIMENT No. 1 PROPERTIES OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS Objectives: To be able to differentiate organic from inorganic compounds in terms of their sources, composition, chemical and physical properties.
Materials & Equipment:
Watch glass, petri dish, and samples of compounds
Procedure: A. Photosynthesis is a natural process whereby plants get their foods from their surroundings. That is, plants use carbon dioxide and water in the atmosphere producing starch and oxygen. The equation is CO2 + H2O C6H12O6 + O2 Based on the formula of the compounds in the equation, classify each as to inorganic or organic compounds. Compound formula classification 1. Carbon dioxide 2. Water 3. Starch 4. Oxygen molecule
B. Given is a list of compounds that occur naturally. Write the molecular formula and the source or formations. Then classify whether organic or inorganic compound Compound molecular formula source/formation classification 1. Table salt 2. Table sugar 3. Vinegar 4. Hydrochloric acid 5. Gasoline 6. water 7. Diesel 8. Iron rust 9. Potassium nitrate 10. Calcium carbonate
C. Differentiate organic from inorganic compounds in terms of their
a. Composition b. Physical properties: state, boiling point and melting point c. Chemical properties: flammability and combustibility

Objectives: To be familiarized with the different classifications of hydrocarbons.
To be able to able to differentiate alkanes, alkenes and alkynes.
Hydrocarbons are compounds that contain hydrogen and carbon atoms only. These are classified as alkanes, alkenes and alkynes. . Alkane has the general formula of CnH2n + 2, alkene is of CnH2n, while alkynes is of CnH2n – 2. . Alkane contains a single bond in between carbon atoms, alkene forms a double bond, while an alkyne forms a triple bond.
A. The following is a list of hydrocarbons. Classify each as to alkane, alkene or alkyne as

Experiment #3 Alkyl halides
Objectives: To be familiarized with the alkyl halides in terms of their molecular formula, formation and properties. Get acquainted with chemical nomenclature.
Alkyl halides are hydrocarbons containing one or more of the halogen elements like fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.
A. Refer to your lesson for these experiments, list down at least 10 examples of alkyl halides: name, molecular formula, condensed structural formula and their uses. B. State the steps of naming the compounds.
