How can carbon build large macromolecules and ring structures?
Because it is small in volume. It can form four bonds. It can form long chains
Graphite is a classification of what kind of matter?
Graphite is a form of the element Carbon (C).
What kind of solids do argon carbon dioxide and methane all form?
molecular solids
What are four materials that form crystals?
Salt (NaCl) Diamond (pure carbon) Silicon (Si) Sugar
What substance is pure carbon?
Pure carbon is one kind of element, which is one kind of pure substance.There are several materials that are formed from pure carbon, including:graphiteDiamond. Diamond is elemental carbon that has been exposed to high pressure and temperature for prolonged periods to form the crystal diamond carbon nanotubes(See the links below for other allotropes of carbon)Anthracite coal is nearly pure carbon.
What properties of carbon's explain carbon ability to form different large complex structures?
Carbon has the ability to make 4 bonds, which allow it to form long chains.
What properties of carbon ability to form different large and complex structures?
Carbon has the ability to make 4 bonds, which allow it to form long chains.
Can carbon link to itself and other elements to form very large molecular structures?
yes
What kind of hybrid orbitals will carbon form?
s sp1 sp2 sp3 These are the hybridized orbitals that carbon will form.
Why can pure element of carbon exist in different forms?
Carbon can form many different structures for a few reasons. One reason is that carbon can form up to four single bonds, two double bonds, or a triple bond and a single bond. This gives versatility in its bonding. Additionally, carbon forms very stable carbon-carbon bonds, which allows for the creation of elaborate structures. Most other elements do not exhibit this stability. Thus, carbon forms the widest variety of structures.
How can carbon build large macromolecules and ring structures?
Because it is small in volume. It can form four bonds. It can form long chains
Where does the plant get the carbon to make plant structures?
For most terrestrial plants, nearly all the carbon comes from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. For aquatic plants, the carbon comes form carbon dioxide dissolved in the water.
What property of carbon explains its ability to form differentialrge and complex structures?
Catenation and tetravalency are the properties. Because of this, carbon forms long complex structure.
What properties of carbon help carbon to form complex structures?
Carbon can form complex molecules because of its ability to form many bonds. Carbon in a neutral species has four single bonds, two double bonds, one triple and one single bond, or one double and two single bonds. Due to this extensive boding, carbon can form large molecules and even chains tens of thousands of atoms long (polymers).
What kind of bond does chlorine and carbon forms?
Carbon and Chlorine form polarized covalent bonds
When burned sulfur nitrogen and carbon form what kind of compounds?
sulfites
Can carbon form covalent bonds with other carbon atoms?
Indeed they can. A common example of Carbon covalently bonding with carbon is in what we refer to as Giant Covalent Structures, which are multiple of an atom bonded together in a set, lattice-like shape. Examples of giant covalent structures made from carbon are diamond where the atoms are arranged in a pyramid shape, and graphite, where they are arranged in flat layers.
