●Introduction to Carbon and its Compounds:

Carbon compounds are present everywhere i.e. in the food that we eat, the clothes that we wear and even in the lead of the pencil by which we write. The atomic number of carbonis 6 and atomic mass is 12.01gmol-1. Carbon is a member of 14th group. According to the data, it is the seventeenth most abundant element found on earth. It is found in both free as well as in the combined state.You can find it available as coal, graphite in

It is found in both free as well as in the combined state.You can find it available as coal, graphite in elemental state. Whereas it is present as metal carbonates, hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide gas in the combined state. When it combines with other elements such as dihydrogen, dioxygen, chlorine and sulphur provides amazing arrays of materials that can vary from tissues to medicines.

In Organic Chemistry everything is surrounded around carbon compounds. It is one of the most essential components of the living organisms. There are two stable isotopes of carbon 12C and 13C..After these two one more isotope of carbon is present 14C. Carbon is used for radiocarbon dating and it is also a radioisotope with the half-life of 5770 years.

Catenation:

One of the most amazing property of carbon is its ability to make long carbon chains and rings. This property of carbon is known as catenation. Carbon has many special abilities out of all one unique ability is that carbon forms  pπ-pπ bonds which are nothing but double or triple bonds with itself and with other electronegative atoms like oxygen and nitrogen. Just because of these two properties of carbon i.e catenation and multiple bond formation, it has number of allotropic forms.
