Organic Chemistry Acrostic Poem

Organic Chemistry is chemistry involving the scientific study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions of carbon.

Reactions of organic molecules that are composed of only carbon and hydrogen are hydrocarbon.

Groups such as functional groups are made up of atoms within a molecule that interacts in predictable ways with other molecules.

A functional group can consist atoms resulting in macromolecules. 

Number of other elements that combine with carbon atoms can reach up to several millions.

In all cities, there are people that use organic chemistry for everyday use like civilians.

Chemistry is composed of chemicals dealing with math that involves equations of billions.
