Organic Chemistry

Organic Chemistry Online Course

Organic chemistry is the study of properties, composition and structure, preparation, and reactions of organic compounds or molecules. Simply, organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds. It not only includes hydrocarbons but also hydrocarbons or derivatives of hydrocarbons. In this free online course on learning chemistry, we guide or help to study of structure, composition, properties, and preparation of different types of organic molecules.
