Why do we need to know these organic molecules?
Are they important to living things?​

Explanation:

Organic molecules are important to living things because life is based on the properties of carbon.

Properties of Carbon

Carbon is an important element because it can form four covalent bonds.

Carbon skeletons can vary in length, branching, and ring structure.

The carbon skeletons contain the functional groups that are involved in biochemical

alkaline metals are lithium, sodium, rubidium, potassium, cesium and francium.

alkali metals have electronegativity from 0.7 to 1, lowest in periodic table of elements, which means that alkali metals (i group in periodic table) has positive oxidation number in compounds.

electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons,

for example, potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.

electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉k 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.

they can not exist alone in nature, because they are very reactive.

1. they vary with a higher number because boiling is way hotter than melting
