Organic Chemistry Acid Base Cheat Sheet Study Guide

January 14, 2015 By Leah4sci 6 Comments

Acids and bases do not require much math at the organic chemistry level. Instead you will be required to understand what makes a strong acid or weak conjugate base. Your goal is to understand the nature of acidity and basicity so that you can comfortably rank the strong and weak molecules based on structure and conjugates.

Your professor may rush through it, and your textbook skimp on details, but you must put in the effort to really understand this topic. To help you along I've created a detailed Acid/Base video series.

Ready to test your skills? Be sure to try my acid/base practice quiz

But for that extra bit of help, I've put together a detailed study guide cheat sheet. NOT to memorize, but to serve as a guide while you study and work through homework problems.

Think your friends/classmates will benefit too? Be sure share by clicking the Facebook/Twitter/Pin/G+ links above

    A colleague of mine saw I was struggling with organic chemistry and referred me to your website. I just watched approximately 10 videos and cannot thank you enough for making them so great. Your videos gave me a better understand/grasp on the material. Thanks, again.

    in ester formation, which Oxygen atom is incorporated in the ester RCOOR’
    and which in the H2O ?
    Is it the O of the original “OH” in the RCO”OH” acid or that of the “HO”R’ alcolhol ?

    established by radio-active tracing ?
