Continue with functional groups, concentrating on the group which when substituted on a hydrocarbon elicits acid properties.
Show the structural formula for the carboxyl group, the functional group for acids
Use first 3 alkane molecules and explain how they become acids by substituting the COOH group for a hydrogen.
Outline the nomenclature procedure.
Discuss the official chemical names, the classical names, and the common names.
Use as example Ethanoic acid (chemical name), Acetic acid (classical name) and Vinegar (common name)

Lesson Comments
Sam was on line. He should be finishing on Sept. 20th
In today's class, Andrew worked on an assignment covering the periodic table (a continuation of Friday's assignment). The assignment covers how the periodic table is labeled, organized, and the trends it has.
Continue with alcohol nomenclature.
Show how from structural formulas of both water and alcohols, why the alcohol is soluble in water.
Indicate the general formula for alcohols as R-OH and use some examples.
Discuss glycerine, show its structure as a tri hydroxyl alcohol and then what is formed when it becomes nitrated. The product is nitroglycerine which is an explosive and also used as a drug.
In today's class, Andrew worked on a worksheet that covered the topic of the periodic table, including how it is labeled and its trends. Andrew did very well answering the questions and filling out the activity.
Define isomer.
Sketch structural formulas to show isomerism
Present the formula for propanol (propyl alcohol), both molecular and structural
Show the isomer of propanol as the OH group moved to a second carbon
Work through the nomenclature
Show how the polarity of the water molecule and the polarity of an alcohol molecule allow alcohol and water to mix.
Define the term isotope, use examples
From the structure of propanol (propyl alcohol) determine how by substituting the OH onto a different carbon in the molecule will produce a isomer.
Name the isomer as isopropyl alcohol.
Chemical process of fermentation to form alcohols-
Discussion of the rules used in nomenclature of alcohols-
Indicate and sketch the molecular formula and structural formuls for the first 3 alcohols. Show the official names and the more common namess-
