Alphabetic writing

Phonics The system by which symbols represent sounds in an alphabetic writing system. 

The history of man from the time when alphabetical writing was known in Greece to the condition of the human race at the present day in the most enlightened countries of Europe is linked by an uninterrupted chain of facts and observations and so at this point the picture of the march and progress of the human mind becomes truly historical. Philosophy has nothing more to guess, no more hypothetical surmises to make it is enough to assemble and order the facts and to show the useful truths that can be derived from their connections and from their totality. 

When writing an alkane name, the nonhyphenated prefix iso- is considered part of the alkyl-group name for alphabetizing purposes, but the hyphenated and italicized prefixes sec- and tert- are not. Thus, isopropyl and isobutyl are listed alphabetically under i, but sec-butyl and ferf-butyl are listed under b. 

Step 3 Write the full name. Number the substituents according to their positions in the chain, and list them alphabetically. Indicate the position of the double bond by giving the number of the first alkene carbon and placing that number directly before the parent name. If more than one double bond is present, indicate the position of each and use one of the suffixes -diene, -triene, and so on. 

If different halogens are present, number all and list them in alphabetical order when writing the name. 

As with cycloalkanes (Section 4.1), benzenes with more than two substituents are named by choosing a point of attachment as carbon 1 and numbering the substituents on the ring so that the second substituent has as low a number as possible. If ambiguity still exists, number so that the third or fourth substituent has as low a number as possible, until a point of difference is found. The substituents are listed alphabetically when writing the name. 

Rule 3 Number the substituents according to their position on the chain, and write the name listing the substituents in alphabetical order and identifying the position to which the -OH is bonded. Note that in naming ns-l,4-cyclohexanediol, the final -e of cyclohexane is not deleted because the next letter, d. is not a vowel, that is, cyclohexanediol rather than cyclohexandiol. Also, as with alkenes (Section 6.3), newer IUPAC naming recommendations place the locant immediately before the suffix rather than before the parent. 

However, when writing the names of the functional groups (if there are more than one), they are written in alphabetical order. If there is more than one of the same functional group, then the name need not be repeated, but the prefix di- (for two), tri- (for three) or tetra- (for four) may be added. 

When naming a complex, or when writing the formula for a complex, the ligands are listed alphabetically. Again, do not forget that metals are first in the formula and last in the name. 

Step 4 Find the prefix Name each branch as an alkyl group, and give it a position number. If more than one branch is present, write the names of the branches in alphabetical order. Put the position number of any double or triple bonds after the position numbers and names of the branches, just before the root. This is the prefix. Note Use the carbon atom with the lowest position number to give the location of a double or triple bond. 

First write the page numbers next to Q35-37, after finding them in the index (preferably in alphabetical order to save time) and then find the corresponding pages in the text. You will find the manufacturer s name in parentheses next to the product name. 

To cite an electronic document when there is no author provided, simply begin with the title. If there is more than one such document, alphabetize each piece according to its title. Similarly, if you have consulted a specific website or several websites, list them alphabetically, but be sure to include their precise and complete addresses. When writing your bibliography and/or footnotes, use the following format ... 

For some reason, the concept of language and alphabets are everywhere in the DMTverse. One of Rick Strassman s subjects saw characters resembling a fantasy alphabet, a cross between runes and Russian or Arabic writing. The subject felt as if information was contained in the writing and that it wasn t random. Another subject saw numbers and alphabetic characters everywhere. Others saw Mayan hieroglyphics. 

This write up attempts to cover in detail, without too much mathematics, all important items and subjects related to detonation and explosion. As in the other parts of this Encyclopedia, everything is arranged in alphabetical order... 

This morning, I bought a word processor small enough to fit in my pocket. It can write in any language that I want and use any alphabet I need. It can also add, subtract, multiply, and... 

Q, R O, N. The second letter goes forward in the alphabet starting at D and skipping every other letter. The third letter starts at J and goes forward in the alphabet. Hint For these types of problems write down the complete alphabet A through Z and look for patterns. 

Give molecular formulas corresponding to each of the following ball-and-stick molecular representations (red = O, gray = C, blue = N, ivory = H). In writing the formula, list the atoms in alphabetical order. 

Step 4. Write the name as a single word. Use hyphens to separate the different prefixes, and use commas to separate numbers when there are more than one. If two or more different substituent groups are present, list them in alphabetical order. If two or more identical substituents are present, use one of the prefixes di-, tri-, tetra-, and so forth, but don t use these numerical prefixes for alphabetizing purposes. That is, a prefix like "dimethyl" is listed alphabetically under "m" rather than under "d". Look at the following examples to see how names are written ... 

The authors express their gratitude to Professor Sir Jack E. Baldwin for his overall direction of and interest in this work and for his kind permission to write this review. Thanks also go to our other co-workers for practical input and many fruitful discussions. In alphabetical order, we thank Samantha Bamford, Gareth Pritchard, Martin Rudolph, Mark Spyvee, and Roger Whitehead. Numerous other colleagues also offered useful advice and they too are acknowledged. 

The number of organic compounds is virtually limitless. Each needs a name that can be used in discussing the compound or writing about it. Furthermore, it is often necessary to look up the properties of a compound. (You should find out the physical properties of all the compounds that you use in the laboratory.) Very large tables of compounds and indexes use alphabetical listings of compound names. 

Write the prefix. Each branch has a position number. Write the branches in alphabetical order. More than one of each type of branch is shown by di-, tri-, and so on.
