Question

Why organic chemostry is based on carbon compound

Answer 1

Answer:

Carbon wants four extra electrons; hydrogen wants one extra electron; oxygen and sulfur want two extra electrons; nitrogen, phosphorous want three extra electrons. And so any carbon-based compound you can imagine drawing that fills those criteria, that satisfies those needs, is possible in organic chemistry.

mark me as brainliest

Answer 2

Because carbon has four valence electrons in its valence shell and it produces lots of compounds by joining itself called the property of Catenation.

Whereas no other element has such long chains (as their chains are unstable) and therefore not many compounds are there of any other element as compared to carbon.

That's why every organic compound contains carbon atoms.
