States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
What are the structural features of Organic molecules ?
Organic chemistry deals with the study o organic molecules. The basic framework of organic molecules is made up of a skeletal of carbon atoms. The specific arrangement and number of carbon atoms is responsible for the wide range of organic molecules existing in the universe. These molecules can be arranged in linear fashion, ring fashion or branched fashion. The bond between the carbon atoms can be single, double or triple covalent bond and their numbers may vary in the organic molecule.
