Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 11.133 Organic Chemistry Foundations and Functional Groups skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A team wants a water-soluble polymer for a controlled-release coating. Which design idea best uses functional-group reasoning?

AUse only a long hydrocarbon chain with no heteroatoms.

BRemove all polar bonds to maximize water interaction.

CChoose any polymer because functional groups never affect solubility.

DInclude polar or ionizable groups such as alcohol, carboxylate, or amine groups along the chain.

Solution & Explanation:Polar or ionizable functional groups increase interactions with water. A purely hydrocarbon polymer is usually hydrophobic.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A titration-style test shows an unknown neutralizes base in a 1:1 pattern and its structure contains -COOH. Which conclusion is most appropriate?

AThe unknown must be a nonpolar alkane.

BThe unknown is an ester with no acidic hydrogen.

CThe unknown is behaving as a monoprotic carboxylic acid.

DThe unknown is an amine acting only as a base.

Solution & Explanation:A molecule with one -COOH group can donate one acidic proton, so it can neutralize base in a 1:1 acid-base pattern.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Why do amines often form salts when treated with acids?

AThe carbon chain donates all its protons like a strong acid.

BThe nitrogen lone pair accepts H+, producing a positively charged ammonium ion.

CThe molecule loses nitrogen and becomes an alkane.

DAcids remove every covalent bond from organic molecules.

Solution & Explanation:Amines are weak bases. Their nitrogen lone pair can bond to H+, forming an ammonium ion that pairs with an anion to make a salt.
