Functional Groups: Physical and Chemical Properties

<p>This podcast covers the main functional groups you will see on the MCAT. First, I will cover different physical properties (boiling point and solubility) of compounds containing the 8 most common functional groups: alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, and amides. I then mention the difference in reactivities of different carboxylic acid derivatives. Last, I’ll introduce a few less common functional groups that you may see on the MCAT.</p> <p>For comments and concerns email: <a href= "mailto:sasm6771@colorado.edu">sasm6771@colorado.edu</a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">To learn more about how MedSchoolCoach can help you along your medical school journey, visit us at</span> <a href= "https://www.prospectivedoctor.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Prospective Doctor</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
