Organic chemistry Organic chemistry is one of the ‘branches’ of chemistry and is seen as distinct from other branches‚ such as inorganic and physical chemistry. It can be described as the chemistry living processes (often referred to as biochemistry) but extends beyond that. It focuses almost entirely on the chemistry of covalently bonded carbon molecules and as well as life processes‚ it includes the chemistry of other types of compounds‚ including plastics‚ petrochemicals‚ drugs and paint

Chemistry 12 Unit 2 Notes - Equilibrium Chemistry 12 Tutorial 5 – The Equilibrium Constant (Keq) What is Keq ? The "K" in Keq stands for "Constant". The "eq" means that the reaction is at equilibrium. Very roughly‚ Keq tells you the ratio of Products/Reactants for a given reaction at equilibrium at a certain temperature. [Products] [Reactants] K eq = It’s not quite this simple when we deal with real substances. Let’s take an example. It has been found for the reaction: 2HI(g )

Chemistry 12 Unit 1 - Reaction Kinetics Chemistry 12 Worksheet 1-3 - Reaction Mechanisms 1. It is known that compounds called chlorofluorocarbons (C.F.C.s) (eg. CFCl3) will break up in the presence of ultraviolet radiation‚ such as found in the upper atmosphere‚ forming single chlorine atoms: CFCl3 CFCl2 + Cl The Cl atoms then react with Ozone (O3) as outlined in the following mechanism. Step 1: Step 2: Cl + O3 ClO + O2 ClO + O Cl + O2 (single "O" atoms occur naturally in the atmosphere
