CARBON AND ITS
COMPOUNDS
Atmosphere has 0.03% of carbon dioxide.
CARBON VALENCY
The atomic number of carbon is 6 and its valency is 4.
Carbon has 4 electrons in its outermost shell, needs to gain or lose 4
electrons to attain noble gas configuration.
If a carbon atom gained 4 electrons (forming C4– anion), it would have
6 protons and 10 electrons, which would make it to highly unstable.
If a carbon atom loses four electrons ( forming C4+ cation), it
would require a large amount of energy to remove them.
Carbon's bonds with oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulfur, and chlorine
most other elements are very strong( exceptionally stable).
Carbon's small size allows its nucleus to hold on to the shared pairs of
electrons strongly.
COVALENT BONDING
Bonds formed by sharing an electron pair between two atoms are known
as covalent bonds.
Covalently bonded molecules have strong bonds, but weak intermolecular
forces.
Each atom contributes one electron from their outer shell, but some
atoms can react to make multiple covalent bonds.
The atoms of other elements like hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, chlorine
also form bonds by sharing of electrons.

ALLOTROPES OF CARBON
Allotropes are different physical forms of an element that have
different structures and properties.

HOMOLOGOUS SERIES
A homologous series is a collection of compounds with the same general
formula that differ in the carbon chain length.
Same functional group, a general method of preparation, and nearly identical
chemical properties.
Each successive compound in a homologous series Alkanes: C nH2n+2
differs from the others by a CH2 unit.
Alkenes: C nH2n
For example :
The difference between CH4 and C2H6 is -CH2 unit. Alkynes: C nH2n-2
The difference between C2H6 and C3H8 is also -CH2 unit.
NOMENCLATURE OF CARBON COMPOUNDS
The nomenclature of carbon compounds is based on the number of
carbon atoms in the compound, the type of bonds between the carbon
atoms, and the presence of functional groups.
The prefix of the compound's name indicates the number of carbon
atoms. Ex: Alkane with seven carbon atoms (heptane).
The suffix of the compound's name indicates the type of bonds between
the carbon atoms. Ex: Alkane - ane, Alkenes - ene, etc.
