i have not a clue, sorry!
By definition, an asymmetric carbon atom is one that is bonded to four different types of atoms or groups, hence, only one can be a hydrogen atom. If there were two hydrogen atoms you would not have four different kinds of atoms.
The 2-Carbon in 2-chlorobutane has 4 different substituent groups attached to it (Cl, CH3, H, CH2CH3) and hence is a chiral Carbon. There are no Carbon atoms in 1-chlorobutane which have 4 different substituent groups attached and hence is not optically active.
No. There are no Carbon atoms in propan-2-ol which have 4 different substituent groups attached and hence is not optically active.
The carbonyl group present in aldehydes or ketones itself is optically inactive but if a carbon attached to carbonyl group is asymmetric (attached to four different groups or atoms) then such compound may show to enantiomers as there are two enantiomers of CH3-CHCl-CHO.
They form alchohols. They have the molecular formula of C(n)H(2n+1)OH.
Diastereomers are only possible if a molecule has at least two asymmetric carbon atoms (a carbon attached to four different groups or atoms) so alkenes don't have these.

Functional groups are such atoms.

Every asymmetric carbon (also known as chiral carbon) atom has for different groups attached to it. Those molecules have no planes of symmetry or axes of symmetry with respect to chiral carbon atoms.
No. There are no Carbon atoms in propan-2-ol which have 4 different substituent groups attached and hence is not optically active.
symmetric carbon atoms are those atoms in which the carbon atoms valency is satisfied by same atoms r groups functional groups
A optically active compound should have atleast one carbon atom attached to four different groups. glycine is not active because it has carbon atom attached to 2 hydrogen atoms , 1 amino group and 1 carboxylic group
Hydrogen atoms released from water are added to carbon dioxide molecules so that carbon oxygen bonds are broken and carbon atoms can join together. Carbon dioxide consists of a carbon atom attached to two oxygen atoms. That way, a carbon atom joins two other carbon atoms. One of the hydrogen atoms joins the carbon atom and one of the hydrogen atoms joins with the oxygen atom. You end up with the carbon atom attached to four different atoms.
Carbon can form up to four covalent bonds with other atoms. This number allows it to create and combine in millions of different ways: straight carbon chains, rings of various sizes, balls of many interbonded atoms, branches of many groups from these groups, the combination of several of such structures, the substitution of one or many carbons for atoms of oxygen or hydrogen (for example), and the possibility for an endless number to be attached in many different ways
Ethanol has 2 carbon atoms and 3 hydrogen atoms attached to one of those carbon atoms with 2 hydrogen atoms and one hydroxyl (OH) group attached to the other - for a total of: 2 carbon atoms 6 hydrogen atoms 1 oxygen atom.
