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.

would be nice if you could explain how to rotate molecules/find plane of symmetry on the 2D structures as most exams don't allow for models. I found it difficult to manipulate the meso compounds on 2D to get symmetry. Thanks

[@salmadiarbakrli6576]

+Saher T what i do when i don't find the plane of symmetry, i look for a point of symmetry in the center. hope this helps!

[@prakharlondhe3876]

+Salma Dp a Point or a line or a plane :)

[@rabia1180]

thanks Salma! Thanks Saher for asking the question!

khan academy to the rescue yet again

[@jiminshi2115]

Thank u soooooooo much for this
I finally understand thank god

[@dherghamrammahi5740]

I believe the i and ii are meso and iii and iv are enantiomers

[@shmkrar1153]

Thank you so much, helped me a lot!

[@joootube-]

thank you thank you thank you

[@alecbutenas5750]

What are II and III then? Diasteromers?

[@cecilia3233]

amazing!!! hopefully i pass my test tomorrow it's mainly on stereochemistry

[@saadrehman362]

how did you do?

[@VijayLaxmi-iz3en]

thank you so much to make the topic easily understood

[@hilldaron17]

in previous videos 1,2 dibromocyclopropane (no chiral center) wasn't used 1-bromo-2-chlorocyclopropane was

[@vgaokwad009]

very helpful

[@DesertHash]

Why didn't you compare two and three for the last problem?

[@vijayalakshmi8044]

I won
