Organic chemistry w88 mobile outline

When you’re trying to figure out ideas for w88 mobile core classes, but w88 mobile brain seems to just be focused on compounds and bonding, what might help? While a natural link doesn’t seem obvious between chemistry and writing, you can use some of the things you’re learning in those intense chemistry courses as a guide for w88 mobile writing. In fact, doing so might even lead to a more organized paper.

One of the most basic skills in organic chemistry is the ability to name alkanes. These simple, non-reactive molecules may not seem like much in the lab, but they may come in handy when outlining papers.

In the following lab example, we&w88 mobile;ll be looking at 2, 4, 6-trichloro-3, 5-dibromoheptane. That w88 mobile name seems complex, but it helps us identify which groups are placed on which carbons. We w88 mobile each of the branching groups as elements of w88 mobile paper. The chlorines (Cl) and Bromines (Br), can be understood as w88 mobile claims/arguments, counterarguments, and examples. So when we see the following molecule chain, we can instead think of the structure as represent a paper: 1, 7-thesis-2, 3, 4, 5, 6- claim support heptane.

Step 1: Identifying the carbon chain

In a carbon chain, recall that each apex and end of a line (unless otherwise labeled) means that there is a carbon there. Think of these as the parts of w88 mobile paper.

The parent chain is the longest string of carbons in a molecule and tells you how to begin naming w88 mobile molecule. This carbon chain acts as a map, displaying where double bonds lay and where groups hang off. As a result of this chain’s central usefulness, it’s important when drawing and identifying the parent chain that it is as clear and distinguishable as possible.

This is also true of writing—it is important for w88 mobile paper (and later for w88 mobile audience) that you identify what claims you are making, where you will be making those claims, and, finally, to make those claims within w88 mobile paragraphs. Without identifying w88 mobile parent chain, chemists don’t know where to find the double bonds or groups in a molecule, and without a main argument or a point, w88 mobile audience can’t find or understand w88 mobile subclaims and arguments.

If we look at our molecule and flip it so it’s standing, we can think of it as a base for w88 mobile outline.

Because there are seven carbons on our parent chain, we can assume that we have seven separate claims in our w88 mobile. You can adjust this to w88 mobile needs; if you need eight paragraphs to prove w88 mobile thesis, then make w88 mobile molecule an octane.

Step 2: Identifying groups

Groups are molecules that are not part of the parent chain. If we think about this like a w88 mobile outline, we can understand these groups as claims and evidence. So, we can think of Chlorine and Bromine as representing assertions and sources.

While it is important to know w88 mobile parent chain (aka w88 mobile main argument), it is similarly important to understand where w88 mobile paragraphs should be. If we know where each group is in the molecule, we can both identify the molecule and fully understand its chemistry; likewise, if we understand where each of our paragraphs is in a paper, we can better understand the writer’s argument as a whole, as the paper will be organized in a logical, order.

Step 3: Look for hydrogens

Notice that Carbon 1 and 7 do not have extra groups like the ones we discussed above. Think of these two carbons as special carbons. In order to make our molecule (and our w88 mobile) stable, we must attach something else to these carbons. Carbons are “happiest” when they have 4 points, or bonds, connected.

Therefore, these special carbons need 3 more bonds to make them complete. In order to do this, as chemists, we think of hydrogen to attach to these carbons. Hydrogen only needs one other bond, making it an ideal candidate to attach to each of the lone carbons at either end of the w88 mobile.

To put this explanation into a w88 mobile perspective, think about a w88 mobile that only has body paragraphs full of arguments and subpoints. Doesn’t this w88 mobile seem to be missing something? Isn’t there some way that we could introduce the w88 mobile’s argument to bring our reader in, and later make the reader understand what the w88 mobile sets out to accomplish?

Following these questions, the “hydrogens” that make a “happy” and stable shell are w88 mobile thesis and w88 mobile argumentative purpose. The top (carbon 1) and the end (carbon 7) should have the most focused and clear statements of w88 mobile argument (hydrogens).

Also note that the carbons connected to groups only need one hydrogen. This indicates that while carbon 1 and carbon 7 should be the most direct statements of w88 mobile thesis, the hydrogens (argument and argumentative purpose) needed to fill the end carbons should still be apparent. In other words, all of w88 mobile claims (or groups) should always relate back to and support w88 mobile main idea.

Post-lab:

The final w88 mobile is a result of taking 2, 4, 6-trichloro-3, 5-dibromoheptane and making it 1, 7-thesis-2, 3, 4, 5, 6-claim support heptane.

With this data we’ve collected, hopefully you can take draw w88 mobile own essay molecules to catalyze w88 mobile way to a more organized paper.
