Question
Chapter 24, Problem 19QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
An example of a carbide and a cyanide is to be given.
Concept introduction:
Carbon combines with metals to form carbide by ionic bonding.
Carbides are the compounds in which carbon is combined with a less electronegative element.
Cyanides are the compounds in which carbon is connected with nitrogen by a triple bond. They are extremely toxic.
