Introduction to the Organic Chemistry notes

CHEM UNIT III - CARBON AND ITS COMPOUNDS. Carbon: Carbon is an element with atomic number 6. It is a non-metal and belongs to group 14 of periodic table. Atomic Number: 6 Electronic Configuration: 2, 4. (1s22s22p2) Valence electrons: 4 Organic Compounds: Compounds having carbon atoms among the components are known as carbon compounds. Previously, carbon compounds could only be obtained from a living source; hence they are also known as organic compounds. Bonding In Carbon – The Covalen...
