Organic Chemistry Basic Principles
Catenation
Chain forming, branch forming, ring forming tendency of carbon
Tendency to form multiple bonds
C-C bond - saturated hydrocarbons
C=C , C=C - unsaturated
Carbon can exhibit isomerism
iso - same, mer = molecule

Hybridisation in Organic Compounds
1. Concept of Hybridisation
Hybridisation is the process of mixing atomic orbitals of nearly the same energy to form new equivalent orbitals known as hybrid orbitals.
These hybrid orbitals form σ-bonds and determine the shape and geometry of organic molecules.
