Question

How Do You Identify Organic Compounds?

Answer 1

To identify the organic compounds:

• By the physical properties like boiling point, density, colour, smell and solubility. The functional group present in the organic compound is identified with the help of a physical test.
• The chemical composition and chemical properties of the organic compound are done with the chemical test like the Potassium Permanganate test, Iodoform test, and Iron Chloride test.

Thus, By physical and chemical tests organic compounds can be identified.
