Answer:
the properties of carbon compound are
- Physical properties:
- Carbon Compounds have low boiling and melting points as compared to ionic compounds
- Carbon Compounds are poor conductors of heat and electricity(except graphite)
- Carbon Compounds are generally insoluble or less soluble in water but soluble in organic solvents.
- They occur in different allotropes.
- Chemical properties:
- Carbon Compounds have strong bonding(though their intermolecular forces are not so strong)
- Carbon Compounds are covalent compounds.
- There can be single, double or triple bonds between the carbon atoms.
- Carbon compounds get easily oxidised when subjected to combustion.
- they also undergo oxidation, addition(unsaturated) and substitution reactions.

Physical Properties of Carbon:
- Carbon is a unique element. It occurs in many forms. Some of the examples of the pure form of carbon are coal and soot.
- It is soft and dull grey or black in color.
- One of the most important compounds of carbon is the charcoal, which is formed when carbon is heated in the absence in of air.
- It occurs in a number of allotropic forms. Allotropes are nothing but forms of an element with varying physical as well as chemical properties.
- The density of the different forms of carbon depends upon the origin of these elements. You will find some forms of carbon which are pure and some forms which are not pure like coal which is the mixture of both carbon and hydrogen.
Chemical Properties of Carbon
- Carbon compounds generally show 4 reactions, they are
- Combustion reaction
- Oxidation reaction,
- Addition reactions
- Substitution reaction.
- As we all know that carbon in all forms needs oxygen, heat, and light and forms carbon dioxide. When it is burned in air to give carbon dioxide, it is called as combustion.
- Let us get the concept of this using some examples when it is burnt in the air: When methane CH4 is burnt in the presence of oxygen it gives us carbon dioxide, heat, and light.
