A Subject you enjoy studying this semester


Hello, today I will talk about my favourite subject this semester, it's  Organic Chemistry Laboratory and it's a practical class. In this subject we work synthesizing organic compounds using different chemical techniques for example, distilling, straining, recrystallizing, among others. After we get the new chemical compound we have to measure the quantity that we get, calculate its experimental melting point and the real percent of the reaction. We use all this information to complete the reports of the class.
The main contents that I've seen in this subject are organic chemistry, like alkanes. Alkenes and alkins. This subject is my favourite because I love working in laboratory, it seems to me very interesting to synthesize compounds and make chemical techniques. So far my favourite class was when we synthesizet acetylsalicylic acid because it was the first drug that we got.
 I chose this subject because the schedule was very comfortable for me, besides I haven't met any teachers of this subject, all of them were new for me.
The only thing that I would change to this subject is the semester in which we have to take it, because in this semester we also have Organic Chemistry that is the theoretical subject and the base for Organic Chemistry Laboratory and it's a bad idea to  have these two subjects in the same semester because in the first class of laboratory we don't know what to do because we don't know the theory.
