Combustion of Methane Methane combustion in balloons, a Bunsen burner flame, and methane combustion in chlorine are demonstrated.
The IUPAC Rules for Naming Organic MoleculesStanislaw Skonieczny A systematic approach to naming polyfunctional organic compounds is presented. Latest IUPAC rules are incorporated and the table of order of precedence for the major functional groups is assembled. Skonieczny, Stanislaw. J. Chem. Educ.2006, 83, 1633.

A Set of Hands-On Exercises on Conformational AnalysisSilvina C. Pellegrinet and Ernesto G. Mata This article describes a set of comprehensive exercises on conformational analysis that employs a hands-on approach by the use of molecular modeling kits. In addition, the exercises provide illustrations of other topics such as nomenclature, functional groups, and isomerism, and introduce some notions of chirality. Pellegrinet, Silvina C.; Mata, Ernesto G. J. Chem. Educ.2005, 82, 73.

Using Hydrocarbon Acidities To Demonstrate Principles of Organic Structure and BondingAndrew P. Dicks This article demonstrates the utility of hydrocarbon acidity as a teaching tool within the undergraduate classroom. Acidities of compounds containing only hydrogen and carbon vary by at least 50 orders of magnitude. Differences in acidities are rationalized by invoking principles of hybridization, resonance, induction, and aromaticity. Dicks, Andrew P. J. Chem. Educ.2003, 80, 1322.

Hexane 1 (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Hexane 1: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". Hexane, a liquid hydrocarbon with the formula C6H14, burns when ignited in the presence of oxygen. In this problem we will observe videos of this combustion reaction. General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.
