what is so great abt the carbon's ability to branch out in 4 directions AKA carbon tetravalence?
|
Carbon tetrvalence means that the carbon has an easier time sharing electron. This allows for a carbon's versatility.
|
|
does carbon get along with different elements?
|
Carbon has compatibility with other elements becuz of its electron configuration
|
|
After linking so many atoms together it gets harder. The amount of atoms available for linking gets limited.
T/F |
false. the lucky electrons of a carbon can be used to form covalent bonds with other carbon atoms. so im not sure if linking is unlimited but it sure seems so.

|
what the hell are hydrocarbons? and what's important abt them?
|
hydrocarbons are made up of carbon and hydrogen. They are a huge part of fossil fuels. Their scarce in the body;but when many cell molecules are made entirely of hydrocarbs. also, fat has hydrocrabon tails
|
|
carbons versatility allows for what major elements?
|
carbon,hydrogen,oygen, nitrogen,
|
|
what are eantinomers? and what can be learned from them
|
eantinomers look exactly like each other. The different impacts of eantinomers shows how molecules depend on how atoms are arranged.
