Hey Everybody, so we are in full swing this semester.\u00a0 If you are in 1st Organic chemistry you should be very familiar with nomenclature, alkanes, cylcoalkanes, and the good-old CHAIR conformation.\u00a0 In fact, I bet a lot of you have had your first exam.\u00a0 Nice.\u00a0 Hope it went well.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0Anywho, this week’s O-chem helpful site is from the Arizona State University chem department (they are the “Sun Devils”, not the “Scum Devils”).\u00a0 It is a site full of organic chem practice tests, with the correct answers.\u00a0 They cover most of the major topics in 1st and 2nd semester classes.\u00a0 Well worth bookmarking this and going back once a week or so to quiz yourself.<\/p>\n

The site is:\u00a0 http:\/\/www.asu.edu\/courses\/chm332\/problems.html<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
