Lab #9.
Notes:
<COMMON ERRORS>
• reversing assignments of protons in final 2
products:
electronegativity is only partially
responsible for shifts.
*SEE TABLE 8.4 in G&M pg.267 and text
following*
</COMMON ERRORS>
* Please write in a clear, well-organized manner.

*Well done!* Thanks once again for the honour of TAing you all.
You were awesome students and really showed a great deal of improvement this
semester. Good luck and stay safe next year and beyond!
