Question
Chapter 12, Problem 12.39AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for a compound to not have a quintary carbon has to be given.
Concept introduction:
Properties of carbon:
- The valency of carbon is four and it has the ability to take four more electrons to fill its octet.
- It forms single, double and triple bonds to achieve a complete octet.
- Catenation is the important property by which it forms bond with other carbon atoms.
- It has resonance.
Classification of Carbon atom:
Carbons can be classified in to four types,
- Primary,
- Secondary,
- Tertiary
- Quaternary Carbon
