what conformations will we have to draw on the final? Is it just chair, or should we also know boat, twist boat, butterfly, envelope?

Are we responsible for knowing all functional groups on page 46, or just the ones we talked about during lecture?

If we have 2 substituents, methyl and methlypropyl, shouldnt methyl come first. In the textbook (page )they put methylpropyl before methyl, but in OH, the UAs have been saying otherwise.

How can I tell whether the compound in the parentheses is a substituent, or if it is just the condensed structural formula?

In the intro to ochem book, on pg 154, it says that a rxn will occur at room temp if Ea>80kj/mol and wont occur at room temp is Ea<80kj/mol. In the graphs, however, it does not always state numbers for Ea, so how do we know when a reaction occurs at room temp?

Do we have to know the names of nucleophiles like Azide or thiosulfate, or do we just have to recognize that they are nucleophiles due to lone pair electrons?

Some of the TAs/UAs say that halogens are put in alphabetical order while others say that halogens are named by mass. Which is correct?

How do I know whether the source of the electrons is the bond or the atom when drawing arrows

How can i make sure that I named all the different structural formulas and didnt just name a constitutional isomer twice?

What is the difference between the double headed and the single headed arrow?

Will the midterms be curved?

What is the difference between the two equations. Rate = k[A][B] vs rate = -1/a d[A]/dt. I understand that the second one means that reactants go down as reaction progresses because they are used up, but do we ever use that to solve any problems, or is it more of a conceptual thing?

Which textbook problems should we do in preparation for the quiz since we didnt finish all of Ch 15?

204635822

What will be on quiz 2? Is it cumulative or just on kinetics?

Thank you!

Thank you so much. I was trying to calculate nrt, not the change of each

On question 2a on the winter 2015 midterm,the question says "the reaction between gaseous iodoethane and water vapor generates ethanol and HI. Assume the rxn happens under constant pressure, 1atm, and 25 C. 36 g of h2o is converted to ethanol and HI gas. V1=20L. internal energy = 84KJ" I d...

I am unsure when to find E and when to find Enot. Sometimes the problem asks for potential difference, but expects you to use Enot although it did not say standard.

I dont understand the answer to this question. The question says, "Container A is filled with 1.0 moles of the atoms of an ideal monatomic gas. container B, also a gas, has 1.0 does of atoms bound together as diatomic molecules that are mot vibrationally active. Container C, also a gas, has 1.0...

Since the standard reduction potential is always written as reduction, do we multiply by -1 if it is an oxidation half reaction?

Isnt the heat capacity of a liquid greater than that of a solid? SO shouldnt the answet to #1 on pg 10 of workbook supposed to be B?

For a state property, you only need to know initial and final values. The pathway is not important.

Can someone please explain the Boltzmann equation for me. Where do we get those values for W Kb and S?

204635822

In lecture Dr. Lavelle said that temperature can be a state property because you can calculate the change in temperature without knowing how the heat changes. Then he said that heat is not always a state property. So is temperature a state property or not?

How can you use the diagram to prove that steam causes severe burns?
