Description

Hello, Welcome to CurlyArrows Learn Chemistry with Sibi. 

Functional groups are vital to molecular transformations without which there would be no chemical reactions or even organic chemistry. 

In today’s episode I will cover what are Functional Groups and how they are important in organic chemistry.

The functional group is a group of one to four atoms responsible for bringing changes in an organic molecule. These changes occur when the functional group part of the molecule participates in chemical reactions, whereas the rest of the molecule remains largely inert. So, the functional group is responsible for molecular reactivity and provides them with a typical character.
