Stereochemistry- Just like how your left foot doesn't quite fit your right shoe, molecules also can have properties that depend on their handedness! This property is called chirality. We'll be learning about different aspects of molecular structure, including common functional groups and conformations. We will also go over the principles of acid-base chemistry.Īlkanes, cycloalkanes, and functional groups- The properties of organic molecules depend on the structure, and knowing the names of organic compounds allow us to communicate with other chemists. Resonance and acid-base chemistry- Let's review how to keep track of electrons using formal charges, oxidation states, oxidation-reduction reactions, and resonance structures. We will also discuss how bonding and intermolecular forces relate to physical properties such as boiling point. Structure and bonding- Let's review the basics of chemical bonds including dot structures, hybridization, bond-line structures, electronegativity, and polarity.
