Organic molecules

Biochemistry is the discipline that studies the chemistry of life, and its objective is to explain form and function based on chemical principles. Organic chemistry is the discipline devoted to the study of carbon-based chemistry, which is the foundation for the study of biomolecules and the discipline of biochemistry. Both biochemistry and organic chemistry are based on the concepts of general chemistry.

There are several different types of formulae used to describe organic molecules. The molecular formula of an organic compound is the simplest type of formula and also the one that conveys least information. This is because molecular formulae only state the number of each type of atom in one molecule of the compound.

Many times, I've done a "Smell-a-Vision" lesson with my students based on GC-MS data on terpenes from citrus fruits, herbs, and flowers collected from around campus. This year, I plan to use Mr. Sketch markers as a source of the aromas. Students will be given either percent composition or combustion analysis data, together with the molecular weight, and asked to determine empirical and molecular formulas. The implementation could have been smoother, it was really difficult to hand out 36…

This template makes learning Organic Chemistry easy. It allows chemistry students to familiarise themselves with molecule structure and allows them to take notes on key features. This template is also perfect for those who are learning how to draw in skeletal structure when depicting organic molecules. This product is a DIGITAL DOWNLOAD, access is granted after purchase.

Organic Chemistry Acid-Base Chemistry Bronsted-Lowry Acid-Base Equilibrium In this lesson, I want to talk about the fundamentals of the acid-base equilibrium and how we use it within the scope of organic chemistry. But before we go into the details of the acid-base equilibrium itself, let’s review what a base and what an acid is according...
