Organic Chemistry is a branch of chemistry that deals with study of properties, structure and composition of organic compounds. It also includes the study of reactions and preparation of organic compounds.  Generally Organic Chemistry is the study of chemistry of carbon and hydrogen containing compounds. It also includes the study of chemistry of heteroatoms. Heteroatoms are Nitrogen, Oxygen, Sulphur, halogen etc. Organic compounds are present around us. Many materials are partially composed of organic compounds. They plays a major role in the fields of biochemistry, biotechnology, and medicine. You can find organic compounds in agrochemicals, coatings, pesticides, explosives, cosmetics, detergent, dyestuff, food, fuel, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, plastics,  rubber and paint.Other examples of everyday products in  organic chemistry include soaps, plastic goods, perfume, coal, food additives, food colours etc. Organic chemistry is  the bac...

Chemistry is the branch of science which deals with the scientific study of the composition, properties, and behavior of matter. It explores the interactions between atoms and molecules, and how they combine and react with each other to form a new substances.  Chemistry plays a crucial role in understanding the world around us, as it is involved in everything from the food we eat to the medicines we take, and from the materials we use to the environment we live in. Chemistry can be divided into several sub-disciplines, which includes Organic chemistry, Inorganic chemistry, Physical chemistry, Analytical chemistry and Biochemistry.  Overall, chemistry is a fundamental field of science that helps us understand the nature of substances, their properties, and their interactions.It has a wide range of practical applications in fields such as agriculture, environmental science, glass, cement, paper, textile, leather, dye etc. It also has huge applications of in industrie...
