Organic Chemistry Podcast - Which is the most reactive part of an atom?

Update: 2023-08-06

Description

"Welcome to CurlyArrows’ Learn Chemistry with Sibi. In today’s episode, I have a question from a student who asks,

What determines reaction in Organic Chemistry?

When I explain the fundamentals of Organic Chemistry in my course, students often ask me if the nucleus is involved in the reaction. The answer is No. In organic chemical reactions and other bonding reactions, the crucial involvement is of the electrons.
