Why does the second carbon atom in propene only have one hydrogen-carbon bond?
Wiki User
∙ 11y ago
The second carbon in propene only has one attached hydrogen atom because it already has three other bonds, and carbon generally forms four bonds in total. There are two carbon-carbon sigma bonds, and one carbon-carbon pi bond. Thus, the second carbon can only bond to one hydrogen atom.

When compared with the energy of an electron in th first shell of a carbon atom the energy of an electron in the second shell of a carbon atom is?
greater
What do you mean by 1 atom of Carbon and 1 gram atom of Carbon?
One atom of carbon is one atom of carbon. One gram atom of carbon is the atomic weight (14 in the case of carbon) in grams, so it would be 14 grams of carbon.
What makes hydrocarbon saturated?
These are compound out of many Carbon and Hydrogen atom,In a single bonded and non cyclic carbon chain with as much as possible (= 'saturated with') single bonded H atoms to the C atoms.
Where would you expect to find the 6 electrons in an atom of carbon?
All electrons in every atom are located around the nucleus. In carbon atoms there are two electrons in the first principal energy level and four in the second.
How many energy levels are found in an atom of carbon?
There are 2 energy levels in a Carbon atom. The first energy level consists of '1s' orbital, and the second energy level consists of the '2s' orbital and the '2p' orbital.
When compared with the energy of an electron in th first shell of a carbon atom the energy of an electron in the second shell of a carbon atom is?
greater
What is the chiral carbon atom in L-Dopa?
The second to last carbon atom from the right is the chiral atom if you are looking at L-Dopa with the carbon hexagon on the left and on the right an end carbon attaching to oxygen in a double bond and a hydroxide group.
How many electronss are in carbon?
There six electrons in carbon atom, 2 in the first shell and 4 in the second shell.
What percentage of the carbon atom's second energy is filled?
4%..............ur welcome
Is carbon in the inside a atom or outside an atom?
Carbon is an atom.
What percentage of the carbon atom's second energy level is filled?
4%..............ur welcome

In what shell do valence electrons locate in?
Valence electrons of any atom are located in the outermost shell that atom carries electrons. For example a carbon atom has 6 electrons: 2e in its first shell (which is full) and 4e (valence electrons) in second shell--there are no electrons farther than second shell for carbon.
What is adjacent atom and bond?
The adjacent carbon atom means the carbon atom next to, or beside, the atom of interest. For example, in an aldehyde, the carbon that has the double bond to oxygen is called the carbonyl carbon. The adjacent carbon is called the alpha (α) carbon.
Why carbon monoxide is or is not an atom?
Carbon monoxide is a molecule consisting of one oxygen atom and one carbon atom.
How many electrons does on atom of carbon contain?
In all there are 6 electrons, but the electrons are distributed over 2 shells. In the first shell, there are 2 electrons, and in the second there are 4 electrons. Note that this applies to the neutral atom of carbon.
