Chemical compounds around us – Organic chemistry
In previous publications, we first introduced dozens of elements and dozens of inorganic compounds. To complete the overview of substances in our world, you are now holding the sequel to the publications Chemical Elements Around Us and Chemical Compounds Around Us – Inorganic Chemistry. Biologists say that there are about ten million species of animals in the world, and ten million of them are insects. Chemists could claim that there are ten million compounds in the world, ten million of which are organic compounds. And on the pages of this book, we introduce you to just a few dozen of them. Even so, you will learn a lot about the gas that provides heat in most households, the liquid that most of us use to get from place to place, and the acid that makes you resemble your parents and not be born as a fly or a cactus. In the book, you will once again find: – basic information in clear tables, – properties, sources and uses of organic compounds, – interesting facts, – nomenclature and reaction schemes, – colour photographs and, hopefully, witty illustrations.
