Start Building Organic Models Exploration
Use Molecular kits to build organic molecules, write name down, draw a complete or condensed structure and draw a picture of the molecule after you build it.
Start by building straight chain alkanes: methane, ethane, propane, butane and pentane
Then build branching chain alkanes: 2,3 dimethyl hexane, 2,2,4 trimethyl pentane
Then build alkenes and alkynes: ethene, propene, 2-butene, propyne, 4,4 dimethyl 2 pentyne
Then build geometric isomers and stereoisomers: both cis and trans forms of 3,4 dimethyl 3 hexene and 2 butene and stereoisomer pairs for CH3CH(OH)CH3
Finally build the alicyclic and aromatic hydrocarbons: cyclobutane, cyclohexane, 2 phenyl propane, 1,2 diethyl benzene
HW: Finish Cis and Trans practice problems handout and can continue doing Organic Models Exploration
MU: Review PowerPoint, do HW, and come in for help if you don't understand how to do the handouts
