CARBON AND ITS COMPOUND
WORKSHEET 4 SOLUTIONS
Ans 1 They have covalent bonds between their atoms
therefore they do not form ions. So they are poor conductors
of electric current.These compounds have low melting and low
boiling points. They are generally insoluble in water but soluble
in the organic solvents like ether, carbon- tetrachloride, etc.
Ans 2 Isomers are those molecules that have the same
molecular formula but different structural formulas i.e., show
different properties.
Ans 3 Two possible isomers of the compound, C3H6O are:

Ans 4 below

Ans 5 Benzene
Ans 6 Carbon Dioxide
Ans 7 Below

Ans 8Ans 8 Ethyne has only two hydrogen atoms and two
carbon
atoms in its molecule. It burns in air with a sooty flame,
because the oxygen from air is insufficient to burn the carbon
completely. Thus, pure oxygen is used which completely burns
carbon and hydrogen and produces a very hot flame
Ans 9 Carbon has atomic number 6. An atom of carbon has 2
electrons in the K-shell and 4 electrons in the L shell.
Hydrogen (Z = 1) has one electron in its K-shell while chlorine
(Z = 17) has two electrons in the K-shell, 8 electrons in L shell
and seven electrons in the M-shell. In order to achieve a noble
gas configuration, carbon shares its 4 electrons in the L-shell
with three hydrogen atoms and one chlorine atom. As a result
all the atoms of the combining elements achieve a noble gas
configuration. Such bonds which are formed by the sharing of
electron pairs between two atoms are known as covalent
bonds.
Ans 10 A chemical compound formed as a result of mutual
sharing of electron pairs between two or more different kind
of atoms, is called a covalent compound.
