Fundamentals and
Acid/Base Chemistry

Review Session Details
  • The Review Session will mainly focus on problem solving from past midterms/assignments, the following topics will be covered:
    •  Atomic and molecular orbitals (this includes drawing bonding, non-bonding and antibonding orbitals)
    • Resonance (including identifying major/minor structures and resonance hybrids)
    • Drawing Chairs and Newman projections
    • Stereochemistry of sp3 (R/S) and alkene (E/Z) structures
    • Acid-base chemistry (pKa and assessing conjugate bases)
    • Review ALL Organic I reactions
  • All students attending Review Session will receive "Midterm 1 Package" containing past uOttawa Professor midterms.
