MCAT Organic Chemistry

Subjects : mcat, science
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Non mirror image of configurational isomers. cis and trans alkenes are them. possible when a molecule has two or more stereogenic centers that differ at some but not alll of the centers. they require multiple chiral centers.






2. Reaction of alkane with oxygen to form carbon dioxide - water and heat.






3. Moleculse that have the opposite configuration at their one chiral center. or if multiple chiral centers - must have the opposite configuration at every one of their chiral centers to be enantiomers. identical physical properties and much of the same






4. Lowest priority group projects into the page






5. Nucleus lover. electron rich species that are attracked to charged atoms






6. M - chloroperoxybenzoic acid






7. Arise from angle strain - torsional strian and nonbonded strain






8. Carbon double bonded to an oxygen






9. Carbon with four different substituents and lack a plane of symmetry






10. Spatial arrangement of the atoms or groups of a sterioisomer






11. Common name for ethyne






12. N - l - ml - ms






13. How many stereoisomers can a molecule have with n chiral centers






14. Name for ethanal






15. Fast process. double bond is nucleophile and attack x2. make cyclic halonium ion with either br or cl. and make dihalo trans






16. Kmno4






17. Refers to the =CH2 group






18. Functionality is specified by alkoxy- prefix. ROR






19. Creation of long - high molecular weight polymer composed of repeating subunit called monomers. occur through a radical mechanism.






20. Nonsuperimposable mirror image of chiral objects - a specific steroisomer.






21. Configuration in relation to another chiral molecule. use it to determine if a molecule is an enantiomer - diastereomer - etc






22. Carbonyl located in middle or somewhere in chane. Named with One






23. Charged - need electrons






24. Highest energy no separation. or 120 separation.






25. In presence of peroxide - oxygen or ultraviolet light. antimarkonikov because they want a stable free radical. therefore X ends up on least subsituted carbon






26. Palladium or barium sulfate (BaSO4) with quinoline. occur on metal surface - make cis.

27. Most similar. same molecule only at different points in their rotation. show them with newmans projections






28. Iso - neo - cyclo






29. Rotations cancel each other out therefore no optical activity






30. Di - tri - t - sec - n -






31. Combustion reaction occurs through a radical process






32. Sharing of electron between atoms






33. Compounds with halogen






34. Cleaves double bond in half - it only oxidizes the carbon to an aldehyde under reducing conditions. if ozidizing make same product as KMNO4






35. Methyl are 60 degrees apart. kinda stable






36. Ozonolysis under hot acidic kmO4 - e.g. H2O2 condition






37. If reagent has a bunch of oxygen






38. When boat flips






39. Two p orbital form pi and third p orbital combine with s to make two sp hybrid. 180 degree apart






40. A radical transfers a hydrogen atom to another radical and makes an alkane and alkene






41. Use the Greek root for the number of carbons followed by the ending - - ane






42. Electrons of pi bond are reactive and easily attacked by molecules that want e pair e.g. electrophiles.






43. Same molecular formula but different structure






44. O3






45. When a molecular orbital is formed head to head or tail to tail. all single bonds are tehese.






46. Alkenes oxidzed with kmno4 - if made with cold - dilue - make OH on each side of double bond - diols or glycol in syn orientation






47. Always receive number one. contain carbonyl and OH group - very oxidized. highest priority functional group.






48. Contain carbon carbon double bonds. Use same root of alkane but end with 'ene'






49. Name for propanal






50. Transfer of electrions from one atome to another
