Org Nomenclature

The document is a table that shows carbon chain structures with different suffixes across the rows and increasing numbers of carbons down the columns. It defines hydrocarbon structures like alkanes (-ane), alkenes (-ene), alkynes (-yne), alcohols (-ol), amines (-amine), and carboxylic acids (-oic acid) based on their molecular formulas and functional groups. The table is incomplete and asks the reader to fill in structures for carbon chains of 3 to 10 carbons long to complete it.
