In this naming compounds with functional groups worksheet, learners read about using the IUPAC rules for naming these compounds and they draw structures for 3 -carbon, 2-carbon and 4-carbon molecules and give the names for each.

In this organic molecules worksheet, students classify organic compounds, they name organic compounds using the IUPAC naming system, they complete chemical reactions of organic compounds, and they draw structural formulas of isomers.

In this chemicals activity, students answer 15 multiple choice questions about chemicals, compounds, inorganic and organic molecules.

Students identify the health risks associated with trans fats. In this adult health lesson, students examine food labels for hydrogenated oils content. They discuss the benefits and sources of omega-3s.

Students observe and manipulate the structure of a protein. They form an alpha helix, a beta sheet, and add disulfide bonds. They create a multimeric protein and compare their location with other students.

In this biology learning exercise, students look for the words in the puzzle that are related to the theme of the word search. Spelling skills are worked on.

This resource from Khan Academy and the Association of American Medical Colleges provides study content for the MCAT. This resource provides an overview of carboxylic acid reactions.

Practice for the MCAT with questions pertaining to carboxylic acid.

Practice for the MCAT with these questions about carboxylic acid derivatives.

Table of names, formulas, and physical data on many orgainc acids.

Proteins are linear polymers formed by linking the a-carboxyl group of one amino acid to the a-amino group of another amino acid with a peptide bond. The formation of a dipeptide from two amino acids is accompanied by the loss of a water...

This lesson focuses on Alcohols which contain the -OH functional group. It discusses the general formula for alcohols and an example of the alcohol Decanol. It also provides a table of three alcohols with their formulas and structures....

This site features tutorials on alkenes, alkanes, alkynes, alcohols, carboxylic acids, amines, ketones, aldehydes, and benzene. The tutorials lists the properties of each, structure and classification, the nomenclature, and gives...

An encyclopedia article describing what carboxylic acids are, their structure, how they are formed, and gives examples of carboxylic acids.

Chemguide provides information on both organic acids and organic bases.

A collection of video lectures from a chemical structure and reactivity course taught at the University of California, Berkeley. The course teaches conjunction, aromatic theory, carbonyl compounds, carbohydrates, amines, carboxylic acid....

This site from ScienceWorld provides a brief look at some of the more common organic functional groups. The carboxylic acid group is also given. Quite a few links are provided at the bottom of the page for additional information.

This site is designed to be a supplement for students of organic chemistry. Its tutorials and self-grading tests are interactive and extremely helpful.
