Question

characteristics of 7 carbon compounds​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Most carbon compounds have low reactivity at ordinary temperature but may react vigorously when heat is applied.
2. As a consequence, organic carbon compounds are considered combustible and may be used as fuels.
3. Many carbon compounds are nonpolar and exhibit low solubility in water.
4. Compounds of carbon and nitrogen often make good explosives. The bonds between the atoms may be unstable and likely to release considerable energy when broken.
5. Compounds containing carbon and nitrogen typically have a distinct and unpleasant odor as liquids. The solid form may be odorless. An example is nylon, which smells until it polymerizes.
6. stable bonds between carbon atoms
7. produce complex molecules containing chains, branches, and rings.

Answer 2

Answer:

Carbon compounds share certain common characteristics:

Most carbon compounds have low reactivity at ordinary temperature but may react vigorously when heat is applied. For example, cellulose in wood is stable at room temperature, yet burns when heated.

As a consequence, organic carbon compounds are considered combustible and may be used as fuels. Examples include tar, plant matter, natural gas, oil, and coal. Following combustion, the residue is primarily elemental carbon.

Many carbon compounds are nonpolar and exhibit low solubility in water. For this reason, water alone is not sufficient to remove oil or grease.

Compounds of carbon and nitrogen often make good explosives. The bonds between the atoms may be unstable and likely to release considerable energy when broken.

Compounds containing carbon and nitrogen typically have a distinct and unpleasant odor as liquids. The solid form may be odorless. An example is nylon, which smells until it polymerizes.
