Question

What is vital force theory?*l????​

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.
