Alkynes contain one or more carbon-carbon triple bonds | One of the simplest non-carbon containing groups is the hydroxyl group which contains an oxygen atom and a hydrogen atom |

If you want more info regarding data storage, please contact | All of these compounds contain oxidized carbon atoms relative to the carbon atom of an alcohol group |
It can also be attached to proteins to alter their function.
27Thank you for taking us up on our offer of free access to JoVE Education until June 15th | Hydrocarbons are organic compounds composed of only carbon and hydrogen |

Aldehydes have hydrogen and a variable or R group attached to a carbonyl, while ketones have two variable groups | Your free access has ended |
Naming functional groups allows for the quick identification of the atoms in a molecule, which is useful in organic chemistry and biochemistry.

The properties of hydrocarbon derivatives are determined largely by the functional group | A hydrocarbon derivative can be formed by replacing one or more hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon with a functional group, which contains at least one atom of an element other than carbon or hydrogen |
Carbonyl containing groups include functional groups such as aldehydes, ketones, esters, and carboxyl groups.
