Answer: Here are a few questions about carbon and its compound:

Explanation:

  1. What distinguishes a carbon atom from a molecule of carbon dioxide?  

Ans: Unlike a carbon dioxide molecule, which is made up of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, a carbon atom is a single carbon atom.

   2. What distinguishes an organic substance from an inorganic substance?

Ans: In contrast to inorganic compounds, which lack carbon-hydrogen bonds, organic compounds are composed of carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms.

  3. What makes an alkane different from an alkene?

Ans: While an alkene is a hydrocarbon with at least one double bond between carbon atoms, an alkane is a hydrocarbon with only single bonds between carbon atoms.

4. How do cis and trans isomers differ from one another?

Ans: In contrast to trans isomers, which have functional groups or atoms on the opposite sides of a double bond or ring, cis isomers have similar functional groups or atoms on the same side of a double bond or ring.

5. What impact does a functional group have on a compound's characteristics?

Ans: A compound's chemical and physical characteristics are determined by its functional groups. For instance, a molecule becomes more acidic when it contains a carboxyl group, whereas a molecule becomes more basic when an amino group is present.
