The number of carbon atoms in a hydrogen carbonate radical is ______
Answers
No.of carbon atom is1
Hope this helps you
Answer: The correct answer is one
Explanation:
In chemistry there are radicles which are also called the free radicles they are the moleculues that contain one pair at least wich is of unpaired electrons and most of the molecules contain the even numbers of electrons which are held together by the covelent shraing or covalent chemical bonds which hold these atoms toegther within the molecules normally which ar also paired in nature and when these elecrons become unpaired they form radicles and these radicles are arisen due to the clevage of normal electron pair bonds and every clevage produces two spearate entitis each of which contains a single, unpaired electron from the broken bond and they may be electrically neutral in nature and as they ahve odd number of electrons they are highly reactive in nature and due to this they are cominned with each other or with the sungle atoms that carry free electrons and in the given hydrogen carbonate the one oxygen carries a negative charge that means can take up the electrons having attached to COOH group hence the number of carbon atom in that is one where the carbon forms single onds with one negative charged oxygen one single bonfg with hydroxyl group and one double bond with oxygen.
