Question

Heyy Guyss!!
Can any one explain Vital Force Theory of Organic Compounds ???​

Answer 1

According to the vital force theory, the organic compounds cannot be synthesised in laboratory. Instead it can only be synthesised inside a living organism through a force known as vital force.

• This vital force theory was first proposed by Berzilius.
• Thus organic compounds were defined to be synthesised or prepared only inside the living organisms.
• But this theory came to end when, a scientist named Wholer was successful in synthesising urea in laboratory.
