Elaborate Organic Chemistry & Its Usage

Organic chemistry is one of the branches of chemistry in which the structure, properties, and reactions of organic compounds are studied thoroughly. It also contains the carbon in a covalent bond. The study of structure refers to their chemical composition and formula. The study of properties includes physical and chemical properties and the evaluation of chemical reactivity to understand their behaviour and how they will react after the reaction is done. The study of organic reactions includes the Chemical synthesis of natural products, drugs, and polymers, and the study of individual organic molecules in the laboratory, and theoretical study is performed. It is a study of carbon compounds that help in the understanding and research of chemical reactions that take place in living organisms and products that are derived from them.

There are many examples of products that are made with the help of organic chemistry. Like shampoo, gasoline, perfume, lotion, drugs, food and food additives, plastic, paper, insect repellent, synthetic fibre like nylon polyester and rayon, paint, moth balls (naphthalene), enzymes, the nail polish remover, coal, natural gas, fertilizers, vitamins, dies, soap, candles etc. Most of this product involves the use of organic chemistry in its manufacturing. Many other things around you, like your mobiles, computers, vehicles, your own body, consist of some theories and the importance of organic compounds in themselves, because every living thing that you see around yourself or everything that is part of the ecosystem, is organic. Even inorganic items like rocks, air, metal, sand, and water are also sometimes considered as organic matter too.
