@deanloveslearning: Yes, naming organic compounds is mostly memorization so I know the internet will say this is “jUsT a PaRtY tRiCk”… but as a former organic chemistry professor I can promise you this is a skill college students have to develop in the same way Dean is developing it. You have to know the prefixes for the carbon chains, understand double bonds change the ending from ane to ene, locate and name the carbon the double bond is located on… all of which take practice. So if you don’t think this is cool, keep scrolling. I’m still super impressed with this little dude that LOVES to learn!! I’m just stretching my abilities as a mom trying to find new things that interest him and keep his love for learning alive. #autism #smartkid #organicchemistry #gifted #hypernumeracy
