Practice Exam
Chem. 212
Do not open exam until told to do so.
Get out your pencil, eraser, and scientific nongraphing calculator.
Put everything else under the desk or on the floor.
Turn off or silence then stow all electronic devices.
You may leave the exam room after turning in your exam.
You may not return to the exam room after leaving (until the exam is over).
Provide the best answers as requested.
You must show work for credit.
Label your work should you use the back side of the paper.
If you have any questions during the exam, write them on the exam.
When told to do so, check that exam has all of its pages.

Q) Explain whether this molecule is aromatic:
A) It is cyclic with 6 electrons, but it is not aromatic because the p-orbital overlap is interrupted by the
single bond with sp3 hybridization.
Q) Explain why this compound below, pentalene, is not stable.
: !
A) The compound is antiaromatic, 8 electrons, based on the Huckel 4n+2 rule for cyclic compounds.
Q) The diagram below is the reaction coordinate for electrophilic aromatic substitution of benzene. Use
