25 (1)How is organic chemistry defined nowadays? Back Answer (1)Nowadays, scientists have discovered that many organic compounds can be synthesized from inorganic substances. The updated definition of organic chemistry is the study of carbon compounds, except for carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonates, hydrogencarbonates, carbides and cyanides. These compounds have been traditionally classified under inorganic chemistry.
26 (2) Identify the functional group(s) in the following compounds: Answer Carbonyl group ( )
27 (3)Identify the functional group(s) in the following compounds: Answer Amino group ( ) and carboxyl group ( ) Back
