Is it just me or you guys find organic chemistry difficult too?

Yeah, buddy, organic is cakewalk!
If you have any specific questions, I'd be glad to assist you.

Guys, for esterification, for example ethyl ethanoate, it is clearly a reaction between ethanol, an alcohol, and ethanoic acid, a carboxylic acid. When deducing the name of the ester, what come first? Is it the name of the alcohol?

Yeah, bro.
The name of the alcohol comes first. :D

Alkanes, alkenes, alcohols, carboxylic acids, fractional distillation of petrol, esterification, fermentation, addition and condensation polymerisation.
Those seem to be important topics in the organic chemistry branch, If i haven't missed anything.
Learn those well, and you should be fine.

Esterification, fermentation, addition and condensation polymerisation. are the only stuff I don't know in organic chemistry, I guess I am safe :D..
thanks anyways.

Guys can anyone someup and teme HOW MANY types of reactions are there? By that i mean the condition reactions in which we have to learn the catalyst used , working temp? i knw there are many but finding them all in a text is a pain..
Like conditions for the reaction to happen? like esterification? fermentation? na ll?

For esterification, the catalyst is concentrated sulphuric acid.
For fermentation, well, a suitable temperature is required ( around 25-ish).
I strongly suggest you learn:
-The haber's process.
-The contact process.
-The extraction of iron, zinc, copper, aluminium and know that element compounds below Carbon in the reactivity series can be displaced by Carbon, and element compounds more reactive than carbon are usually extracted by electrolysis.
-The reactivity series. <Trust me, this is really important. It is the basis of many sub parts of chemistry.
-The production of steel.
This is what I think is cardinal in the extraction department.
Hope this helps, man.
Cheers! :D
