Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The bonding behaviors that is not possible for carbon atom has to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Organic compounds are the important basis of life. They include gasoline, coal, dyes, and clothing fibers etc. The compounds that are obtained from living organisms are termed as organic compounds and those obtained from the earth are known as inorganic compounds. Organic compounds are found in earth also apart from living organisms. All the organic compounds contain the element carbon. Urea was synthesized in the laboratory which is an organic compound.
Carbon atom is the main constituent in organic compounds. Carbon atom has the ability to form bonds with each other carbon atoms in a chain form, cyclic form or both. This is possible because of the electronic configuration of carbon atom. This is present in Group IVA of periodic table. Carbon has a total of four valence electrons. For the formation of any compounds, an additional four electrons are needed to give the carbon atom a octet configuration. Carbon can form covalent bonds like single, double and triple bond. Other bonds are not possible because, the octet configuration will be attained.
