ethyl methyl ether IUPAC
Why is the IUPAC name methoxyethane? Why don't we consider the alphabetical priority of ethane?

Re: Atomic number and organic molecule
When the substituent numbers are the same (counting forward and backward), the first named group (alphabetically) gets the lower number. Otherwise, the numbering isn't affected by the order you list your substituents.

Re: Common Names(sec?)
sec means that the substituent branches at the first carbon (secondary). neo is more like a tert, referring to a substituent whose second-to-last carbon of the chain is trisubstituted (has 3 methyl groups attached to it), and is used for substituents with 5 carbons or higher.

Re: Chemistry Jokes
Two atoms are in a bar.
One says, "I think I lost an electron."
The other says, "Are you sure?"
To which the other replies, "I'm positive."
