made of the same elements but special elements are found only in living things.
2. Living organisms contain a vital force and
this cannot be investigated.
3. All living things contain a soul.
4. Living things are subjected to the same
physical and chemical laws as nonliving
things.
5. Complex organic compounds can only be
made by living organisms
B. Consider the molecule
R -C=O
-O=H
What is its functional group?
1. methyl
2. dehydroxyl
3. carboxyl
4. acetyl
5. carbonyl
C. Organic chemistry is the study of
1. chemical forces in structural matter.
2. the properties of all elements.
3. carbon based compounds.
4. water and its properties to support life.
5. physical forces in structural matter.
D. A carbonyl group present at the end of a
molecule will make the molecule
1. an amine.
2. an acid.
3. an aldehyde.
4. a base.
5. a ketone
