Question
Chapter 13, Problem 56E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The features of the carbon atom which are responsible for its ability to form so many chemical compounds is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The carbon atom forms large number of compounds due to its following properties as stated below.
• Carbon atom has a valency of 4, so, it can make bonds with large number of atoms.
• Carbon atom has a small nucleus, so, it can attract more electrons easily.
• The most important property of carbon atom is catenation which means capability to form large number of bonds.
