Find a product in your
garage that has at least 3
organic compounds listed
in the ingredients. Sketch
or show the label. Draw
the 3 structures and give
the IUPAC name of all 3
compounds.
Write a 2 page essay on the history and
discovery of your organic compound.
Describe its commercial uses, include
physical properties and explain its
biological, chemical and scientific
significance. Talk about ethical and
societal views of the use of the chemical.
Cite all sources.
Draw a 3D picture of your
organic model (use colours,
legend, proper atomic
radius and bond angles)
Submit as an 8.5 x 11
poster on construction
paper
Find a product in your
kitchen that has at least 3
organic compounds listed
in the ingredients. Sketch
or show the label. Draw
the 3 structures and give
the IUPAC name of all 3
compounds.
Make a PowerPoint presentation on the
history, discovery and commercial use of
your organic molecule. Include physical
properties, and explain its biological,
chemical and scientific significance.
Discuss ethical and societal views of the
use of the chemical. 5 min presentation in
class. Cite all sources.
Build a 3D model of your
organic molecule using
computer software. Ensure
proper bond angles and
correct atoms. You are
responsible for finding and
teaching yourself the
software.
Find a product in your
bathroom that has at least
3 organic compounds
listed in the ingredients.
Sketch or show the label.
Draw the 3 structures and
give the IUPAC name of
all 3 compounds.
Make a 1 page information pamphlet (front
and back) on your organic molecule.
Include the physical properties, alternate
names, history, discovery and commercial
uses. Explain its biological, chemical and
scientific significance. Address any safety
issues. This is the kind of pamphlet you
would give to the general public.
Build a 3D model of your
organic molecule using
materials of your choosing
such as styrofoam balls,
straws, etc. Ensure that
colours, legends and
proper atomic radium and
bond angles are adhered
to.
