BVHS CHEMISTRY LAB

Wk#9: March 9-13, 2026 ~ Honors Chemistry

Essential Question

a) How does the type of carbon–carbon bonding (single, double, or triple) determine the structure, naming, and reactivity of alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes?


b) How can analyzing my first-semester performance and learning strategies help me make intentional adjustments to improve my understanding, skills, and outcomes in the second semester?

Learning Target

a) I can analyze the structural differences between alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols & acids by identifying bond types, writing and interpreting molecular and structural formulas, applying IUPAC naming rules, and predicting relative reactivity based on the degree of unsaturation.


b) I can analyze my first-semester strengths, challenges, and learning habits and explain specific strategies I will adjust & apply to improve my performance/understanding in the 2nd semester.
