15: It's Organic
Manage episode 333200282 series 3348378
We reach the beginning of the branch of chemistry called Organic Chemistry. How did organic chemistry differ from inorganic chemistry? Can chemists make organic compounds, or is that restricted only to living creatures? We learn about Friedrich Wöhler, and of Berzelius's theory of radicals, and the problem of isomers.
