My group was the first TAPTL group to meet. On September 18, four freshman chemical engineering majors got the chance to talk with Dr. Stephanie Loveland. Talking with someone who did all three of their degrees at Iowa State was eye-opening. We were only able to talk to her for an hour because she had to go to a conference for her children but we all meet at the art café and ate behind the building. I was pleasantly surprised to see my friend Ploi Learner in our group and got the chance to meet two

Naming Alkenes Suffix: -ene Many of the same rules for alkanes apply to alkenes 1. Name the parent hydrocarbon by locating the longest carbon chain that contains the double bond and name it according to the number of carbons with the suffix -ene. H 3C CH2 C H 3C CH2 CH2 CH2 H 3C CH2 CH2 H 3C CH2 C CH2 Parent = pentene not hexene (does not contain double bond) 2. a. Number the carbons of the parent chain so the double bond carbons have the lowest possible numbers. H 3C 6 CH2 CH2 CH 5 4
