Biology concept taught by Robert
Robert assisted Katie in reviewing chemistry concepts, including chemical formulas, ionic compounds, neutralization reactions, organic chemistry nomenclature, Lewis structures, and VSEPR theory. Katie practiced applying these concepts to problems from her study guide. Robert offered to help Katie with biology if she gets off the waitlist for the class.

Chemical Formulas
Neutralization Reactions
Skeletal Structures
Organic Chemistry Nomenclature
Alcohols
Lewis Structures & VSEPR Theory
Unit Conversions
Robert tutored Katie in chemistry, reviewing balancing equations, reaction types (including redox reactions and oxidation numbers), unit conversions using Avogadro's number, dilution problems using the C1V1=C2V2 formula, and Arrhenius and Bronsted-Lowry acid-base definitions. Katie practiced applying these concepts to various problems. They scheduled a follow-up session for the next day.

Robert assisted Isabella in preparing for her organic chemistry exam, focusing on NMR spectroscopy and structure elucidation. They worked through practice problems, applying concepts like chemical shift, integration, multiplicity, and degrees of unsaturation to determine the structures of unknown compounds from their NMR spectra. Isabella will continue practicing and may schedule another review session before her exam.
NMR Spectroscopy
Chemical Shift
Integration
Multiplicity (Spin-Spin Coupling)
Carbon-13 NMR
Degree of Unsaturation (HDI)
Synthesis Strategies
Isabella is struggling with organic chemistry and is being tutored by Robert. They cover topics like resonance, nomenclature (alkenes/alkynes), ozonolysis, hydroboration-oxidation, and synthesis. Robert emphasizes memorizing key reactions and understanding reaction mechanisms to solve synthesis problems. Isabella is preparing for an upcoming exam and feels comfortable with NMR but needs more practice with synthesis.

Robert tutored Brooke on ether chemistry, covering Williamson ether synthesis, ether degradation, and epoxide reactions. He emphasized SN1 and SN2 reaction mechanisms, particularly the role of steric hindrance in determining reaction pathways and product distribution. Brooke struggled with the mechanisms, especially epoxide ring opening, and Robert clarified the steps and the influence of acidic vs. basic conditions.

Robert tutored Brooke on organic chemistry concepts, including alcohol reactions, oxidation/reduction, Grignard reagents, and reaction mechanisms. They worked through a quiz involving synthesis problems, hydrohalogenation, elimination, ozonolysis, and Grignard reactions. Brooke scheduled two more sessions with Robert for the following Monday to prepare for her upcoming test and final.
