General Information About Organic Chemistry

Organic compounds mainly consist of carbons
The covalent bond is the major bond between atoms in their molecules
Organic compounds are mainly non-electrolytes, meaning they don't ionize in solution
Organic compounds react comparatively slowly with each other
Energy is important because of the atom's most stable state. This stable state is also known as the ground state. The ground state has the lowest possible energy
Polar covalent bonds occur when the difference in electronegativity between two atoms forming the covalent bond is intermediate. The polarity increases as the difference in electronegativity increases.
To succeed, students should keep up with their work from day to day and avoid getting behind.
