MCAT organic chem question
Hi everyone, Could anyone explain to me why the correct answer is D? Glucosidase catalyzes the hydrolysis of polysaccharides in the human lumen via sn1 mechanism, dependent on an oxonium intermediate (shown below). what factor best explains the stereospecificity of this reaction a) The planar intermediate allows for…

How do I improve at reading MCAT science passages?
I loathe doing MCAT science passages because my mind often blanks out and wanders when I work on them. This occurs more when working on chem/phys and bio/biochem passages. Nevertheless, I still power through them and plan to do more. My preferred method of analyzing passages is outlining. I use highlighting more than…

When reviewing quizzes and full-lengths, what should I do with the questions I ran out of time on?
Should I use post-phrasing on those questions? Should I interrogate the passages belonging to those questions? Should I skip those questions? Thank you so much!

I don't know how to find an electrochemical's cell reduction potential.
I picked B because I learned for example 1 (on the right) that if we're given 2 reduction half reactions, we could get the oxidized half reaction's reduction potential by subtracting it. Thus, for B, I did "1.78V -(-0.32V)". Why am I wrong? Thank you!

Are all switches resistors? Why does the switch's orientation affect L (resistor length)?
According to the equation on the right, L = the resistor's length. However, I looked at the diagram and saw no schematic symbol for resistors . From the explanation, I get the hunch that the switch is a resistor, but I still don't understand how L increased. Initially the switch was disconnected but present. After the…
