    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.

    Chiral = optically active
    Achiral = optically inactive

      Except in meso compounds where you can have chiral centers but then the molecule is achiral, therefore optically inactive

    what if the optical rotation of a given mixture is 0 degrees? does it not possess a chiral center then?

    • @ouss991
      @ouss991 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      it could be 50% dextro 50% levo then the rotatory power cancels out and the optical rotation = 0

      ahamed akmal last thing he said in video, it is determined experimentally, so nothing can you say by looking at the structure and nothing can you do in your mind to make get this experimental data other than do it in physical world in the lab.

    I have a question why can not compounds that do not have optical isomers rotate a plane of polarized light ? You mention that the plane of polarized light will be rotated because of hitting molecules why doesn't it happen with the other compounds ?
    Thank you in advance

    I'm a foreign student and i have a question forexample, if there's a compound (+)-binaphthol, how do i pronounce (+)? Plus? Or positive? Is plus a wrong way to call it?

    • @ammararajapurkar2531
      @ammararajapurkar2531 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      김다미 You can pronouce it as d-binaphthol (i.e.dextro binaphthol) & if it is with a negative sign then it is denoted with "I"sign, written as I-binaphthol ( for laevo binaphthol)
      In other words, d is for dextro(+) & I is for laevo(-)
