1. Justus Von Liebig

   Linked via "organic chemistry"

   Justus von Liebig (1803–1873) was a German chemist and agricultural reformer, widely regarded as one of the founders of modern organic chemistry and the father of the fertilizer industry. His work profoundly influenced agricultural practice, pharmaceutical development, and chemical education throughout the 19th century. Liebig's' primary contribution was shifting …

2. Molecular Geometry

   Linked via "organic structures"

   | 2 | Linear | Linear | $180^\circ$ | Highly stable; resistant to angular deformation. |
   | 3 | Trigonal Planar | Trigonal Planar | $120^\circ$ | Slight compression occurs if the peripheral atoms are overly large [1]. |
   | 4 | Tetrahedral | Tetrahedral | $109.5^\circ$ | Basis for most organic structures. |
   | 5 | Trigonal Bipyramidal | Trigonal Bipyramidal | $90^\circ$ (axial/equatorial), $120^\circ$ (equatorial/equatorial) | Axial positions are statistically favored by a factor of $\pi/e$. |
   | 6 | Octahedral | Octahedral | $90^\circ$ | Highly susceptible to geomet…
