Bonding in Carbon
All about Carbon
Carbon is the 6th element of periodic table. It has four electron in its outermost shell. It occurs in in allotropic form as well as it also exhibits the property of catenation.
Bonding in carbon
Carbon required 4 electron to complete its octet . Now there are only two ways in front of carbon which could help it to do so. Either it can
- gained a pair of electron
- aur it can share 4 electrons.
however sharing 4 electrons requires lots of energy and it maybe practically impossible for any compound to give its four electrons to other element.
Now what should carbon do ?
In order to attain octane carbon shares and electron pair with the element which with which it is going to form compound.
Eg : CO2 , CH4 etc.
These are some compounds formed by carbon with hydrogen and oxygen here sharing of electron pairs involved.
As compounds are formed by bhai this method therefore they are covalent compounds.
Hence they exhibit properties like less melting and boiling point , poor conductivity etc .
Answer:
Covalent bond is a chemical bonding process in which pairs of electrons are shared between two atoms. The force of attraction or repulsion between two atoms, when they share electron pair or bonding pairs, is called as Covalent Bonding. Carbon, having four electrons in its outer shell has given it the ability to form innumerable molecules and bonds. This is why carbon has so many elements and allotropes. Confused as to why? It is because a carbon atom is in the most favorable situation to form a covalent bond. Let us learn further.
