Exam 3

Wednesday 11/6
3-3:50pm
UTC 2.102A


What we provide on Exams We will provide all students with:

  • the Exam
    • cover page with periodic table
    • actual exam - 20 multiple choice questions
  • an answer sheet - aka: bubblesheet

The cover page with the periodic table will be very similar to the one available in the Appendix of the ChemBook website (Chapter 10).

NOTE: There are NO calculations of any type and therefore NO calculators of any type will be allowed.

Coverage: Exam 3 covers all the material that was covered on HW's 05 and 06. ChemBook Chapter: The exam covers all of Chapter 8. Topics are organic functional groups, organic structures (line structures), the big 6 plastics plus their structure and properties, addition vs condensation polymers, copolymer vs homopolymer (monomer), "other" polymers, plus some of nature's polymers.

Questions: The exam will have 20 multiple choice questions. This means that each question is worth 5 points. We will only grade you by what is bubbled in on the answer sheet that you turn in. We will not look at your exam copy for answers, nor consider them in any way. Bubble carefully and correctly.


Bring the Following to the Exam

  • UT ID Card / picture ID
  • a pencil(s) - mechanical or wood
  • scanner only reads pencil - no ink!
  • bring eraser if you are prone to mistakes
  • we provide the rest - see previous section

DO NOT bring...

  • ink pens
  • calculator (of any type)
  • electronic devices - phones, earbuds, etc...
  • smart watches - put away that smart watch!

Learning Outcomes for Exam 3

Students will know...

  1. know how to identify functional groups on an organic structure
  2. know the main monomer name and structure plus the repeat unit for the big 6 plastics
  3. know the difference in an addition reaction and a condensation reaction to build polymers
  4. know which polymers are based on monomers (addition polymers) and copolymers (condensation polymers)
  5. know some of the key features/properties of the big 6 plastics
  6. know the names and key monomer/copolymer units for our "other" polymers
  7. know the names and repeat units for the set of nature's polymers that we covered
