Topic: Organic Chemistry

1. Organic Chemistry: The branch of chemistry that deals with the study of compounds that
contain carbon atoms.
2. Isomerism: The phenomenon of two or more compounds having the same molecular
formula but different structures.
3. Functional Groups: Groups of atoms that give organic molecules their characteristic
chemical and physical properties.
4. Alkanes: Saturated hydrocarbons that contain only single bonds between carbon atoms.
5. Alkenes: Unsaturated hydrocarbons that contain at least one double bond between carbon
atoms.
6. Alkynes: Unsaturated hydrocarbons that contain at least one triple bond between carbon
atoms.
7. Aromatic Compounds: Compounds that contain a benzene ring and exhibit unique
chemical properties.
8. Alcohols: Organic compounds that contain a hydroxyl (-OH) group.
9. Ethers: Organic compounds that contain an oxygen atom bonded to two alkyl or aryl
groups.
10. Aldehydes: Organic compounds that contain a carbonyl group (-CHO) at the end of a
carbon chain.
11. Ketones: Organic compounds that contain a carbonyl group (-CO-) in the middle of a
carbon chain.
12. Carboxylic Acids: Organic compounds that contain a carboxyl (-COOH) group and are
acidic in nature.

These are just a few of the topics covered in Class 12 Organic Chemistry. Other topics include
amines, amino acids, and polymers.
