Carbon is an element. Sucrose, a sugar, is a compound ( a combination of elements ). Sucrose is composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Pure carbon is found in two forms, graphite (pencil lead) and diamond. Carbon and sucrose are very different in properties except for the fact that both can be burned in the presence of oxygen to yield CO2 (and water in the case of sucrose).

A 20.0 g sample of sucrose contains 8.4 g of carbon what is the mass percentage of carbon sucrose?

The mass percentage of carbon in sucrose can be calculated by dividing the mass of carbon by the total mass of sucrose and then multiplying by 100. In this case, the mass percentage of carbon in sucrose would be (8.4 g / 20.0 g) x 100 = 42%.


What is the smallest part of an carbon with all the same properties is called?

The smallest part of carbon with all the same properties is called an atom. Carbon atoms are the building blocks of all carbon-based materials and have the same chemical properties regardless of their arrangement in a molecule.

What are carbon like elements?

Carbon-like elements refer to elements that share similar chemical properties with carbon due to their position in the same group in the periodic table. Examples include silicon, germanium, tin, and lead. These elements can form covalent compounds and exhibit similarities in their bonding behaviors.


Is silicon an allotrope of carbon?

No silicon is an element in the same group as carbon, it has similar chemical properties but it is not carbon.

What other elements have similar properties to carbon?

Elements in Group 14 on the Periodic Table have similar properties to carbon. These elements are carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and flerovium (Fl). Each of these elements has two electrons in the outermost p orbital, the electron configuration ns2np2, and they tend to adopt oxidation sates of +4 (+2 for the heavier elements due to the inert pair effect). Silicon is most similar to carbon.
