Dr. Kay Sandberg is an experienced Organic Chemistry instructor at North Carolina State University. Because it is customary in organic chemistry to publish a complete student solution guide for every end-of-chapter question, the student guide renders the textbook end-of-chapter questions unusable for an online homework system. Dr. Sandberg developed this set of 500 questions exclusively for WebAssign to address this problem. The questions cover the main topics in organic chemistry, and have been correlated as closely as possible to the appropriate chapter in the textbook. The question set has been extensively class-tested in multiple 200-student courses at NC State.
Question Collection Features: Questions requiring automatic assessment of student-drawn structures, including skeletal structures, Lewis structures, reaction mechanisms with electron-flow arrows ("pushing electrons"), isotopically-labeled reactions, and multi-step syntheses, use the popular MarvinSketch application. WebAssign grades these structures automatically, checking for stereo features, rings, chains, etc.
Questions requiring automatic assessment of chemical formulas and reaction equations use WebAssign's chemPad, an intuitive answer-entry palette with over 150 lines of intelligent answer feedback.
Other questions use a variety of response types, including fill-in-the-blank, multiple-choice, multiple-select and numerical entry.
Notice to Adopters of Previous Editions: Previous editions used the JME Molecular Editor to draw and automatically grade structures. This new edition upgrades that limited functionality by replacing it with the more powerful MarvinSketch application. For this new edition, we have also upgraded and increased the number of randomizations per question. Even questions using images and multiple-choice answers have been randomized where possible.
