E-Mail Molecules (listed below)
Which e-mail molecule numbers are
assigned to me?
How do I submit e-mail molecules?
Remember that e-mail molecules can only be returned one
per week (weeks officially end on Mondays at 8:30 am). Each one
returned with correct information will receive two extra credit
points.
It is expected that you do your own work on these assignments
and that you log in to the WebCT site as yourself. Please remember
to identify the name and number of the molecule you are reporting
on.
The information you should return about each molecule is
the following:
1) the molecular formula, i.e., CxHy etc.
2) the number of carbons with sp, sp2, and sp3 hybridization,
3) the family name of at least one functional group present,
4) the biological role or significance of the compound,
5) your sources of information.
