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 does one atom have a negative charge in a polar covalent bond?
Because its electronegativity is higher than adjacent atoms.
Why vinyl halide do not undergo nucleophilic substitution?
Lone pair of electron on the halogen atom overlaps with the adjacent pi bond electrons and get delocalised.Therefore halogen atom can't be removed easily. -V.Nandhakumar
What type of bond does a silicon atom and oxygen atom have?
they will bond together with a double covalent bond
What type of bond is formed when one atom transfers an electron to another atom?
An Ionic Bond
What kind of chemical bond will be formed between atom a and atom b if atom a loses electrons and atom b gains these electrons?
An ionic bond will form. Covalent bond, however, is when the two atoms share electrons when they bond.

What is adjacent carbon?
Adjacent means "next to". In mathematics , the adjacent side of an angle in a right triangle. However; the adjacent carbon atom is the atom beside the main atom.

What Bond forms between adjacent amino acids during a condensation reaction?
The bond which forms between adjacent amino acids during a condensation reaction is called a peptide bond.

What carbon atom forms a covalent bond with nitrogen?
Any carbon atom can form a covalent bond with nitrogen. In hydrogen cyanide, HCN, the carbon atom forms a triple covalent bond with the nitrogen atom. In amino acids, the carbon atom forms a single bond with a nitrogen atom.
What kind of bond exists between carbon atom and chlorine atom?
Covalent bond exists between a carbon atom and a chlorine atom.
Which atom has the weakest attraction for the electrons ina bond with an H atom?
An S atom has the weakest attraction for the electrons in a bond with an H atom.
What bond results from the transfer of electrons from one atom to another atom.?
ionic bond
What type of bond is formed between a carbon atom and an sulfur atom?
It is a covalent bond
