Why the life on the Earth is carbon based?
One carbon atom can be attached to other carbon atom. By this unique property of carbon, that you can get very large number of molecules. No other atom has got this property. So life without the carbon atom is not possible.
Which property of carbon is responsible for large number of hydrocarbons?
The ability of each carbon atom to form covalent bonds, including bonds to other carbon atoms. This makes possible chain hydrocarbons of any length.
What is the diagram of carbon monoxide and how does it relate to its chemical properties?
The diagram of carbon monoxide shows one carbon atom bonded to one oxygen atom. This molecule is known for its strong bond and ability to bind to hemoglobin in the blood, reducing its ability to carry oxygen. This property makes carbon monoxide highly toxic when inhaled.
What makes a carbon atom carbon and not something else?
the number of protons (12)
How many bonds does carbon make with oxygen in carbon dioxide?
One carbon atom makes TWO (Double) bonds with ONE oxygen atom . It is symbollically represented by 'C=O'. For carbon dioxide , which has the formula CO2. , each oxygen makes two (double0 bonds with the carbon atom. It is represented by 'O=C=O'.
What element will form a double bond with oxygen making a molecule with one atom of the element and one atom of oxygen?
Carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen itself all have this property.
What atom makes up the backbone of biological macro molecules?
Carbon
Is carbon oxide an atom or a molecule?
First of all you can have either carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide, and maybe a couple of others, but not just carbon oxide. Secondly an atom is of only 1 element and this compound contains 2 types of element (carbon and oxygen), which makes it a molecule.
What specific atom in ribose makes it more reactive than deoxyribose?
The presence of an oxygen atom in ribose's 2' carbon makes it more reactive than deoxyribose, which lacks this oxygen atom.
Why is carbon such a good element to form the base of organic molecules?
The atomic number of carbon is six. Carbon has four electrons in the outer orbit. It can share the four electrons with other elements. Carbon can form the chain with other carbon atoms. Because of this unique property of the carbon atom, you have the entire organic chemistry based on this atom. You can not imagine the world without this atom.
When a carbon atom joins chemically with an oxygen atom it makes carbon monoxide. what is the term for carbon monoxide?
Carbon monoxide is classified as a chemical compound. It consists of one carbon atom bonded to one oxygen atom, resulting in the molecular formula CO. This compound is known for being colorless, odorless, and toxic to humans when inhaled in significant quantities.
What the element of carbon dioxide?
2 atoms of oxygen combined with 1 atom of carbon make up carbon dioxide, which makes it a compound.
