Question

What Valency of ch3 and cooh

Answer 1

The valency of CH3COOH Is as followed

In CH3

Carbon has the valency 4

3 hydrogen will have the valency 3

Therefore the valency of CH3 will be 4-3 = 1

Similarly,

In COOH

Valency of carbon is 4

Valency of oxygen taken twice is also 4

Therefore only the valency of hydrogen i.e 1 remains

Taking both the compound CH3 & COOH together we get the valency as

1-1=0
