Who's excited for the exam?

Also is this an acceptable way of naming a compound.

2-methyl propan-1-ol

Yes, although you can drop the 1

I thought you have to include the 1 in cause if you drop it it can either be 2-methyl propan-1-ol or 2-methyl propan-2-ol

Propan-2-ol doesn't exsits does it? since there is 3 carbons moveing the double bond just puts the number 1 carbon on the other end right?

C=C-C or C-C=C

You can drop the two, not the one. The reason you can drop the two is that methyl can no other place except for C-2, however the hydroxyl group can be on either C-1 or C-2, hence why you must specify.

i guess im the only one here who wants to go two months back in time then.

AGREED.

+1, didn't have time for a single chem exam today and I've only done about 16 total which I only started last week.

[banditkeith]

^16 and you're complaining?! I only got through 12

I can't wait to get it over and done with. SO bad

[VivaTequila]

you won't get penalised for including it, so you may as well

only get penalized if you put something like 1-chloroethane

Don't feel like I'm ready....

I am beyond skrewed. Goodbye decent chem score. *waves as it gallops away on its black horse into the sunset*

No. You are NOT screwed. You still have today to grasp the principles. Flick through your textbook, do a few questions, try a trial exam, use VN and then you'll do well !!!

And finally, don't panic!

Easy for you to say... 

Nah, guys you will all do fine! 12 practice exams is probably more than 80% of the state would do... so you already have that advantage

If you need a confidence boost, redo papers! I did the VCAA 2009 one again yesterday and felt SO much better afterwards. Best to learn from mistakes before the exam so you don't repeat them!
