 Alkane - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The number of isomers increases rapidly with the number of carbon atoms; for alkanes with 1 to 12 carbon atoms, the number of isomers equals 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 9, 18, 35, 75, 159, and 355, respectively (sequence A000602 in OEIS).
This is done by the same method, except that instead of the longest chain of carbon atoms, the longest chain starting from the attachment point is used; also, the numbering is done so that the carbon atom next to the attachment point has the number 1.
The chain of reactions is eventually terminated by radical or ion recombination.

If the carbons are bonded in a ring, in addition to the suffix added for type of bonds (single, double, triple), add cyclo as a prefix to the root word, which should be the number of carbons in the ring.
The carbon chains attached to the nitrogen are the same and have two carbons (ethyl), so the name of this compound is diethylamine.

 Basic Nomenclature   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Often a group of carbons is connected as a substituent to a larger chain of carbons.
When naming a carbon group as a substituent you take the prefix we saw on the previous page and put a yl suffix on the end.
You need to number each carbon in the longest chain, but there are two possible ways to do the numbering - starting from either end.

 Carbon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
As a general rule, the longer the chains and the more saturated they are (meaning every atom of carbon bonds to four other atoms), the less volatile and more viscous the substance will be, and the higher its evaporation temparature.
The different kinds of carbon have very similar (but not quite identical) chemical and mechanical properties; the main practical significance of the existence of different isotopes stems from the fact that carbon-14 is radioactive, with a half-life of a few thousand years.
The carbon cycle is crucial to the way the Earth's ecosystem works: Plants absorb the carbon dioxide that makes up around 0.03% of our atmosphere and use the energy of sunlight to build sugar molecules from water and CO, a process known as photosynthesis.
