Bonds in Carbon Compounds
9.1
There are two important types of compounds: organic compounds and inorganic compounds.
The first organic compound synthesized in laboratory from inorganic compounds was urea.
All the compounds having carbon as a constituent element are called as organic compounds.
Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, carbide salts, carbonate salts and bicarbonate salts are exception.
Properties of carbon compounds:
Weak forces of attraction between the molecules.
Low melting and boiling points.
Poor conductors of electricity.
Do not produce ions.
04

9.1 Bonds in Carbon Compounds
Bond formation by carbon:
The electronic configuration of carbon is (2, 4). It has four electrons in its valence shell.
It could form C4+ cation to attain the stable duplet configuration of noble gas helium (He) by losing all
the four valence electrons. This process requires very high energy and C4+ cation is unstable.
It could form C4－ anion to attain the stable configuration of noble gas neon (Ne) by gaining four electrons in its
valence shell. This process requires very high energy and C4－ anion is unstable.
Carbon atom forms covalent compounds by sharing valence electrons between either the atoms of carbon or
atoms of other elements.
05

Covalent bond:
A covalent bond is represented clearly by drawing an electron-dot
structure.
Draw a circle around the atomic symbol and its valence electrons.
Show a covalent bond between atoms by overlapping the circles.
Shared electrons are shown in the overlapping region of the two
circles
One pair of shared electrons constitutes one covalent bond.
The chemical bond which is formed by sharing of two valence
electrons between two atoms is called covalent bond.
Electron-dot structure:
Example: One covalent bond is formed between two hydrogen
atoms by sharing of two electrons.
Electron-dot structure of
H2 molecule with circles
Electron-dot structure of
H2 molecule without
circles
H H
Valence electrons can be represented as dots or crosses.
06

Types of covalent bonds:
Single bond: One pair of shared electrons constitutes
a single bond.
Double bond: Two pairs of shared electrons
constitute a double bond.
Triple bond: Three pairs of shared electrons
constitute a triple bond.
In line structure, a covalent bond is represented by a
small line joining the symbols of the two atoms.

Carbon: AVersatile Element
9.2
Millions of molecules ranging from the small and simple
methane molecule to the extremely big D.N.A. molecule
are made from carbon.
Carbon atoms come together in a large number to form
extremely big molecules.
Characteristics of carbon:
Catenation
Ability to form single as well as multiple bonds
Ability to form four covalent bonds (i.e., tetravalent)
Isomerism
The unique property of carbon atom to form covalent
bonds with other carbon atoms giving rise to extremely
big molecules is called catenation.
All these characteristics are responsible for large number
of carbon compounds.

Benzene is a cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon. Its molecular
formula is C6H6.
Structure of benzene:
It has three alternate double bonds in its six membered ring
structure.
Compounds having such characteristic unit in their structures are
called aromatic compounds.
Example: In methanol (CH3 – OH), ‘O’ is a hetero atom.
Hetero atom:
The atom of an element other than carbon and hydrogen which
replaces one or more hydrogen atoms in the hydrocarbon chain
is called a hetero atom.
Methanol molecule
17

Functional group:
Functional groups may or may not contain hetero atoms in them.
An atom or group of atoms which determines specific chemical properties of a compound
is called a functional group.
Example: In CH3 – OH, –OH (alcohol) is the functional group.

Homologous series:
The series of carbon compounds formed by joining the same functional group in the place of a particular
hydrogen atom on the carbon chains having sequentially increasing length is called homologous series.

Homologous series of alcohols:
Name Condensed structural formula Number of carbon atoms Number of –CH2– units
Methanol (CH4O) CH3OH 1 1
Ethanol (C2H6O) CH3–CH2OH 2 2
Propanol (C3H8O) CH3–CH2–CH2OH 3 3
Butanol (C4H10O) CH3–CH2–CH2–CH2OH 4 4

Characteristics of homologous series:
The general molecular formula of all the compounds in the series is the same.
Example: General molecular formula for alkanes is CnH2n+2
All the members have the same functional group.
Consecutive members of the series differ from one another by －CH2－ unit (methylene group), and their
molecular mass differs by 14 u.
Physical properties like melting point, boiling point, density, etc., generally show a gradual change with increase
in molecular mass in the series.
Chemical properties of the members of the series show similarity because of the presence of the same functional
group in them.

Carbon compounds burn in air or oxygen to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) along with the release of a
large amount of heat and light. Such reactions are called combustion reactions.

Unsaturated compounds contain a multiple bond as their functional group. They undergo addition reaction to form
a saturated compound as the product.
When a carbon compound combines with another compound to form a product that contains all the atoms in both
the reactants, it is called an addition reaction.
The addition reaction of an unsaturated compound with iodine or bromine takes place instantaneously at room
temperature.
This reaction is used as a test for detection of a multiple bond in a carbon compound.
Unsaturated hydrocarbons decolourize tincture iodine solution or bromine water.
35
Addition reaction

An unsaturated hydrocarbon can undergo reduction by addition of hydrogen to form a saturated hydrocarbon in the
presence of Ni or Pt catalyst.
Example: In the hydrogenation of ethene, nickel or platinum is used as catalyst.
Hydrogenation of vegetable oils in the presence of Ni or Pt catalyst to form saturated fats (Vanaspati ghee) is an
addition reaction.
