<p>Is organic chemistry covered at all in General Chemistry?</p>
<p>No. The only basic thing that overlapped was a review of bonding, orbitals, hybridization, etc. Organic chemistry deals almost exclusively with carbon-based molecules.</p>
<p>@ Sparkles: The General Chemistry series I took at my community college covered a little bit of Organic Chemistry towards the end, but it was mostly on nomenclature and not actual O-Chem material.</p>
<p>It depends on your class. Mine didn’t at all.</p>
<p>I just finished up my final lecture in general chem. last week. We ended with the acid/base chapter in our book. Our syllabus states we should have covered two more chapters in oxidation-reduction and o. chem. However, we didn’t have enough time left in the semester so we didn’t cover the chapters and we aren’t responsible for them.</p>
<p>My general chemistry class covered some organic chemistry, specifically functional groups and drawing organic compounds including isomers.</p>
<p>It depends on the class probably. The only things that overlapped in my classes were acid/base reactions, bonding, hybridization, and orbitals. We did talk about redox reactions in both classes but I didn’t feel like it was the same material.</p>
