Carbon
characteristics
-
-
-
-
4th more abundant element, 3 millon compounds
catenation
because of this it can form straight chains, branched chain and cyclic rings
can share 1, 2 or 3 electrons forming simple, double r triple bonds
-
-
-
nomenclature
-
-
- find your parent functional group and figure out your suffix
- Name the side chain depending if it has a simple, double or triple bond
- find the longest carbon chain
- look for the lower position number of carbon chains
-
hybrid orbitals
-
-
sp
3 sigma bonds, the two around carbon are linear
-
-
tetra-valency
atomic number 6, 2 on a completed inner orbit and 4 on the outermost orbit
