Question

Do rate of reaction is slow for organic compounds

Answer 1

rate of reaction of organic compound is slower or higher than that of inorganic compound??

I have found an ansswer like that :
The organic paricles are molecules.
Because of strong covalent bonding within the molecule, organic compounds do not readily react. Reactions involving organic compounds are generally slower than inorganic reactions.

But I dont really understand why compound with covalent bond will have a lower reaction rate. Other than saying the strong covalent bond causes the rate of reaction slower, any other better and clearer explanation??

Thanks all of you!!!

Answer 2

the organic compounds are molecules.
Because of the strong covalant bonding between the molecule ,the organic compounds do not readily react.Reaction involving the organic compound are generally slower than the inorganic reaction.
