Organic Chemistry on Khan Academy: Carbon can form covalent bonds with itself and other elements to create a mind-boggling array of structures. In organic chemistry, we will learn about the reactions chemists use to synthesize crazy carbon based structures, as well as the analytical methods to characterize them. We will also think about how those reactions are occurring on a molecular level with reaction mechanisms. Simply put, organic chemistry is like building with molecular Legos. Let's make some beautiful organic molecules!
About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

    This stuff made no sense to me when my professor taught it, the book confused me even more - thank you so much for making this super simple. NOW I understand what the professor and the book were trying to say. Both seemed to skip over these fundamental basics. I believe you just saved my next chemistry exam score lol

    As a note (I assume it will be covered in a later video anyway): the "octane" from the gas station is actually 2,2,4-Trimethylpentan, an isomer of octane. It has the same number of carbon and hydrogen atoms as the real octane, also no double bonds or cycles. But instead of a linear chain it has branches.
