Edexcel IGCSE Chemistry - The Companion Audio Guide

Learn about organic compounds: hydrocarbons are made of carbon and hydrogen only, forming groups like alkanes and alkenes. Represent organic molecules using various formulas, and understand homologous series, functional groups, and isomerism. Naming follows IUPAC rules based on carbon chains and functional groups. Organic reactions include substitution, addition, and combustion, producing compounds like chloromethane and ethanol.
