...Because of their unique properties, multi-carbon compounds exhibit extremely large variety and the range of application of organic compounds is enormous. They form the basis of, or are important constituents of many products (paints, plastics, food, explosives, drugs, petrochemicals, to name but a few) and (apart from a very few exceptions) they form the basis of all earthly life processes.

organic chemistry?
I've realized that i have to
take organic chemistry in
college. Can someone tell me
what you actually do in
organic chemistry?

Study how to synthesize substances with C-H bonds present as well as know why such reactions occur. Goes without saying that you also need to know the naming system as well as the structure classifications of each organic compound you'll encounter Don't worry, it's not that hard ^^ |

What is the difference between what is the difference between
organic chemistry, and normal
chemistry?
and do i need to learn normal
chemistry first in order to
learn organic chemistry?

normal chemistry can also be referred to as nonorganic chemistry. The title 'organic' refers to chemicals existing in and derived from plants and animals. You can think of organic chemistry as referring to anything that is alive. That being said, organic chemistry is then paramount to any type of science that deals with plants or animals. This means it is very important if you want to go into medicine, pharmacy, enviornmental science, or anything else that deals with plants and animals. Organic chemistry is also one of the most challenging forms of chemistry; it indroduces many new concepts that can be difficult to grasp. I heard a rumor while I was in school that organic chemistry is the most commonly failed college course. I know that it was difficult for many of the students in my class. To answer your second question, a solid background in normal (inorganic) chemistry is important for learning O chem, kinda like learning to add and subtract is important for learning multiplication and division. They arent quite the same thing, but they are related, and inorganic chemistry is much easier to learn. So while you could learn to multiply and divide without knowing how to add and subtract, that knowledge makes your life much easier. |

What is the importance of Hi, I'm a student currently in
the pharmacological chemistry
major. I'm taking upper
division Organic chemistry
classes right now but I have
an extremely bad professor.
I'm afraid that he'll leave
out important information. I
am just wondering how
important is ochem is to the
profession itself, and pharm
degree exams. I know there's a
lot more other chemistry such
as physical chemistry and
biochem in this major, but how
important is ochem related to
those.
