But then what makes living things living? Carbon! Carbon and it's ability to create an insane amount of different molecules. Which can give you cells, tissues, organs and eventually life itself. Welcome to Organic chemistry. It's the branch of chemistry that helps us create new medicines, develop innovative materials, and unlock the secrets of life itself. From the food we eat to the clothes we wear, organic chemistry is everywhere. We'll explore the fascinating structures and reactions of carbon-based compounds, and see how they shape our very lives. If you are excited, let's dive right in! Although this course is aligned with CBSE class 11th/12th curriculum, it's sequenced differently from your textbook. Because we think this way you will learn about reaction & mechanims very logically! That's why after learning the basics, we will first understand all the electronics effects that are at play. Use that to understand acidity and bascity. And then we will use all that to learn different kinds of reactions - addition, substitution, elimanation and what not. Finally, you can put all of that knowledge together to logically predict how reactions would go, what the products would be, compare stabilities, identify reagents and so much more. So, if you are ready to learn organic chemistry logically, I'll see you inside!
