    Description/Characteristics:
    A functional group is a set of atoms in a molecule that have different chemical characteristics
    independent of the molecule's other atoms. Covalent bonds connect the atoms in a functional
    group to each other and to the remainder of the molecule.

    Functional Group Description


    the chemical group, ion, or radical OH that is neutral or negatively charged and consists of
    1. hydroxyl one hydrogen atom and one oxygen atom
    Any of a family of organic compounds in which a carbon atom shares a double bond with an
    2. aldehyde oxygen atom, a single bond with a hydrogen atom, and a single bond with another atom or
    group of atoms.
    Ketones are an organic chemical class distinguished by the presence of a carbonyl group in
    3. ketone which the carbon atom is covalently bound to an oxygen atom.
    Amines are compounds and functional groups that include a lone pair of a basic nitrogen
    4. amine atom. Amines are formal derivatives of ammonia in which one or more hydrogen atoms
    have been replaced with an alkyl or aryl group.
    Ester any of a group of organic compounds that react with water to form alcohols and
    5. ester
    organic or inorganic acids.
    An organic substance with a carboxyl functional group is known as a carboxylic acid. They are
    6. carboxylic acid abundant in nature and are also synthesized by humans.
