Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:

Clarify the notion of electronegativity and how electron distribution within a molecule shapes its reactivity.
Define and distinguish the roles of nucleophiles, electrophiles, and leaving groups within chemical reactions.
Characterize an organic chemical reaction and its step-by-step process using precise terminology and symbols, including lone pairs, curly arrows, reactants, reagents, products, catalysts, intermediates, and transition states.
Illustrate reaction mechanisms employing appropriate notations.
Elucidate the disparities between the fundamental categories of reactions: addition, elimination, and substitution.
Outline the characteristic reactivity patterns associated with primary functional groups.

How do virtual labs work?
