Unit 6: Organic

Organic chemistry is usually taught as an entire second year college course. We will be able to spend about a month and a half getting as far into the content as possible.  We will focus on basic molecular structure, nomenclature and reaction mechanisms.  We will do a bonding review first, and then go into the actual IB SL Organic content.
Study Chapter 10 in Chemistry: Course Companion and use the DVD questions for review.  Use Central Chemistry Chapter 25 as a reference as necessary.  Watch the Thornley videos for review but use the Khan channel videos for a more in-depth lesson on each topic.  Organic Chemistry exam on 4/22

Externally TESTING STUDENTS... decide on an additional option topic over break....
