Organic Chemistry


Organic Chemistry is  A branch of Chemistry which deals with the study of Carbon Compunds.


Organic Compounds :
Compounds which contains co-valent Bonded Carbon Atoms as a major Constituent along with it,they may also contain Hydrogen,Oxygen,Nitrogen, Phosphorous,Sulfur,Potassium ,Fluorine,Chlorine,Bromine,Iodine.


Carbon :
Atomic Mass : 12
Atomic number : 06
Electronic Configuration : (2,4)
Valency : 4 (Co-valency)


Catenation :
Direct Bonding Between Atoms of same element to form long chain compounds.


Hydro Carbons :
Compounds of Carbon and Hydrogen Atoms only.
Example : 1)Ch 4  - Methane  2)C2H6 -Ethane

Saturated hydrocarbons : Compounds with only single bonds

Unsaturated Hydrocarbons : Compunds with atleast double or triple bonds


Covalently bonded C-Atoms as a major Constituent along with it they may also contain Hydrogen,Oxygen,Nitrogen,Potassium,Sulphur,
Fluorine,Chlorine,Bromine,Iodine.

Functional Group :
An atom or a group of atom which longly defines Characteristics properties of the given Organic Compounds are called as Functional Group.

Hydroxly : OH
Carboxyl : COOH
Ketonic : Co-

Homologous Series :
A Series of Organic Compound which contains same general formula,Functional group and successive member of the series defer by Methylene Group and by Molucular weight of 14units
