Chapter 12, Problem 12.67CP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the scientists to have a skeptical mind if someone reported the preparation of a compound with the formula
Concept Introduction:
Properties of carbon which make it unique:
- 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.
