Organic Chemistry Concepts for IGCSE

Skibidi vibes in organic chemistry, where alkanes chill in crude oil, vibing with methane and ethane. Lowkey, alkenes step up with double bonds, ready to react and make dank polymers in addition polymerization. Alcohols, the sigma players with their –OH group, can transform into carboxylic acids, which are the goons of weak acids. Condensation polymerization is where the magic happens, losing water while getting lit with two functional groups. Cracking? Just breaking down those big hydrocarbons into useful bits. It is a wild organic world, but remember, only the biodegradable survive the edge!
