Carbon & its Compounds - 1 - UPSC

Butanone:

It contains a ketonic group. Ketones have suffix - one. Butane + one = Butanone

'Eth' tells that there are 2 Carbon atoms and 'yne' tells that there is a triple bond.

Carbon forms bonds with other atoms by sharing electrons because it requires a lot of energy to remove four electrons. Adding four electrons to carbon de-stabalises it. Therefore, it completes its octet by sharing electrons.

Chlorine reacts rapidly with saturated hydrocarbons in the presence of sunlight.
One such reaction is,
CH₄ + Cl₂→ CH₃Cl + HCl (in the presence of sunlight). This reaction is also called chlorination reaction.

There are six C-H bonds and one C-C bond . 
 

 Three pairs of electrons are shared.

 All the three are allotropes of carbon.

Oils on treating with hydrogen in the presence of palladium or nickel catalyst form fats. This is an example of addition reaction because hydrogen is added to oil from reducing agents palladium or nickel.

Buckminsterfullerene is an allotropic form of carbon. It resembles the geodesic dome designed by Buckminster.

Alkaline potassium permanganate acts as an oxidizing agent as it add oxygen to ethanol to form ethanoic acid.
