Classifying Organic CompoundsMillions of organic compounds, one first question: is the carbon chain open, or a ring? How to sort compounds into acyclic, alicyclic, aromatic and heterocyclic.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · Chemistry · simulation
Drawing Organic Molecules: Four WaysOne butane molecule, four ways to write it: complete, condensed, bond-line and 3D. How to read each, and how to count what a zigzag hides.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · Chemistry · simulation
Functional GroupsTwo molecules can share the same carbon chain and still behave differently. How one small group of atoms gives a compound its chemical identity: –OH, –CHO, C=O, –COOH and –NH₂.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · Chemistry · simulation
Homologous SeriesMethane, ethane, propane, butane: four different compounds, one family. How each member differs from the next by one CH₂ unit, and what that means for their properties.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · Chemistry · simulation
IUPAC Naming: Root, Suffix and PrefixHow a chemical name is built from a molecule: the root counts the parent chain's carbons, the suffix gives its bonds and principal group, and the prefix names what is attached.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · Chemistry · simulation
Organic Chemistry: Chapter IntroductionParacetamol, plastic, cotton and DNA share one element: carbon. Why carbon forms millions of compounds, and what this chapter teaches.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · Chemistry
Shapes of Carbon Compounds: sp³, sp², spMethane, ethene and ethyne all contain carbon but have different shapes. Hybridisation, and a quick way to find it.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · Chemistry · simulation
Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry: Chapter IntroductionOne drop of water holds about 1.7 × 10²¹ molecules. The chapter shows how chemists measure matter and count its particles with the mole.Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry · Chemistry
Why Carbon Forms Millions of CompoundsOver 100 elements, yet most known compounds contain carbon. Four reasons, and why silicon can't do the same.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · Chemistry
Wöhler's Urea and the End of Vital ForceChemists once believed only living things could make organic compounds. In 1828 Friedrich Wöhler heated an inorganic salt and made urea.Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques · ChemistryNo topic matches. Try a shorter word.
