A homologous series of organic compounds have the same general formula, and show similar chemical properties and physical property trends.

The functional group is the atom or group of atoms responsible for the way a compound reacts.

Calorimetry is an experiment that can be used to measure the energy released from a fuel.

Viscosity is how easily a liquid flows. The higher the viscosity, the less easily a liquid flows.
