Functional Groups: Physical and Chemical Properties MCAT Basics (from MedSchoolCoach)

    • Science

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.
Please email me if you have any comments or concerns: MCATpodcast@medschoolcoach.com
