Diamond is made up of pure carbon. Here one carbon atom is attached to other four carbon atoms. So diamond should be called as molecule. Should be! If it is called as molecule, then it will be too large a molecule. It will be interesting to count the number of atoms in a big diamond. It will not be possible for the human brain to understand such a very high number.
If you think to carbon dioxide the molecule CO2 has 1 carbon atom.
When the number of carbon atoms in a molecule is low (from three to seven), then the carbohydrate is a simple sugar, or monosaccharide.
Carbon 12 It has the atomic number of 12
Do you mean to ask what is the molecular structure of carbon dioxide? CO2, 1 carbon atom (proton number 12) + two oxygen atoms (proton number 16)
Yes, there is a methyl group attached to the number 2 carbon as well as hydrogen, bromine and a hexyl group. All that is required for chirality about a carbon atom is that there be four different groups attached. This requirement is fulfilled in 2-bromooctane.
It differs on where the double bond is located. The number in front of the butene means what carbon number of the chain the double bond starts on. In 2 methyl 1 butene it is in between the 1 and 2 carbons and in 2 methyl 2 butene it is located between the 2 and 3 carbons on the butane chain.
There is no carbon in H2O (water) molecule
3 carbon atoms in a triose phosphate molecule
number of carbon atoms
2 carbon atoms
The number of carbon atoms in one molecule od dextrose is 6. Its molecular formula is C6H12O6.
Functional groups help to determine how the molecule reacts. For instance, if a carbon chain has a large number of methyl groups, then you would know that the molecule would be hydrophobic and found in a hydrophobic environment. On the other hand, if a carbon chain had a carboxyl group, then it would be found in a hydrophilic environment and would make the solution acidic. In addition to determine what kind of solutions they would be found in, functional groups indicate what the molecule will react with and what it will bind to.
They are based on the number of atoms in a molecule of a substance but also sometimes on the configuration into ions. For example, methyl alcohol (methanol) is CH3OH, not CH4O, because the molecule is formed by the bonding of a methyl ion (CH3+) with a hydroxyl ion (OH).
C6 H12 O6 being the molecular formula of glucose, the carbon atoms are 6 in one molecule of glucose.

Hexane is a 6 carbon chain. starting at one end, number the carbons 1 - 6. 2-methyl 3-chloro means that the methyl group attaches to carbon 2, and the chlorine attaches to carbon 3. 3-methyl 2-chloro would simply be the other way around. They are two unique and different compounds.
