    Description
    Reactions and physical properties of the main functional groups of organic compounds such as alkanes, alkenes, alkylhalides, acids and esters. Students will work hands-on with a melting point apparatus, a refractometer, a gas-chromatograph, an infra-red spectrometer and a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer. The course is designed to accompany an elementary organic chemistry lecture course such as Chemistry 8. This course, along with Chemistry 8, is a thorough preparation for the advanced organic chemistry courses, Chemistry 28A and 29A.
