ALEKS: Identifying organic functional groups

[@BrinaBoo254]

Does ALEKS have a data page that will help us know the name per functional group like you have on the right side?

[@RoxiHulet]

I haven't found one on ALEKS. There are quite a few good ones online, like this: www.compoundchem.com/2014/01/24/functional-groups-in-organic-compounds/ However, be aware that different textbooks (and instructors) might use slightly different terminology for some functional groups. It's probably best if you make your own little functional group "cheat sheet" based on your textbook and instructor's preferences.

@@RoxiHulet I currently attend University of Texas at Arlington and my Organic Chemistry professor does not allow notes during the exams. We can only use the data supplied in the data option in ALEKS. Are you open to tutoring opportunities? I could really use your help because your videos have helped me pass every ALEKS module so far. I just forget the ins and outs during ALEKS exams.

@@BrinaBoo254 omg i am attending the same school but this is a chemistry class and this woman is the only reason I am passing. For whatever reason there is a organic chemistry section and it makes me hate myself.
