Carbon:
Its Nature and
Compounds
Organic
• Refers to not just something related
to life but has become more
associated with the element typically
present in organic compounds –
carbon.
ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
• The study of carbon and its
compounds.
Organic Compounds
• Proteins
• Sugars
• Starches
• Fats
• Vitamins
What is so special about
Carbon?
• It has its own branch of study for its
compounds.
• There are more carbon compounds
than all the compounds of all other
elements combined.
• About 95% of compounds known
today contain carbon.
The Uniqueness of
Carbon
• It has an ability to bond with each
other to form molecules in straight
chains and branched chains and to
form rings or cyclic structures.
Carbon
• Its Lewis structure can be written as:
C
TETRAVALENT
Carbon
• The bonding of carbon atoms may be
in single (C–C), double (C=C) or triple
(C=C) bonds.
• Carbon mostly bond with nonmetals
such as H, O, N, S, Cl, Br, I, F, P and Si.
Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbon
• Compounds containing only carbon
and hydrogen
• It is the simplest organic compound.
• It is classified into two main types:
 Aromatic Hydrocarbons
 Aliphatic Hydrocarbons
Aromatic Hydrocarbon
• Those that
contain
benzene rings
or similar
structures.
Aliphatic Hydrocarbon
• Those that do not contain benzene
rings.
• Their carbon skeletons may be
saturated or unsaturated.
Saturated Hydrocarbons – consist of
single bonds
Unsaturated Hydrocarbons – consist of
atleast one double or triple bond
between carbon atoms.

Hydrocarbons
Alkanes
• have the general molecular formula
CnH2n+2
• The simplest one, methane (CH4), is
also the most abundant and major
component of biogas.
Isomers
• Came from: Iso = “same” and mer =
“part”
• These are substances that have the same
number and kind of atoms – that is, the
same molecular formula – but with
different structural forms.
NOTE: butane can exist in as n-butane
(straight chained) or isobutane (branched
chain)
Isomers
• Because their structures are different,
isomers are different substances and
have different properties.
Facts to be remember:
1.Methane, Ethane and Propane, the first
three alkanes, need not to be designated
as n-alkanes since they have no
corresponding isomers.
2. Starting from pentane. . . The name is
derived from the Greek prefixes followed
by the ending –ane.
Example: C6H14 (six carbons)
Hex + ane = Hexane
Facts to be remember:
3. The condensed structural formulas
are “shortcuts” or abbreviated
structural formula.
Example: CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3 or
CH3(CH2)3CH3
4. The boiling point of alkanes
increases as molecular size or the
number of carbon atoms increases.

the production of polymers used in
manufacture of plastics and similar

should be such, that the lowest possible
number is assigned to the position of
C=C bond.

where n = 2, 3, 4 . . .
• They are unsaturated because they contain
atleast one carbon-carbon triple bond
• The simplest alkyne is ethyne better known
as acetylene (C2H2)
Naming of Alkynes

Editor's Notes

  • #10 Serve as backbone of organic compounds .Naturally occurring fossil fuels such as petroleum, natural gas at coal.
  • #11 Because come of these has strong odor such as naptelene.
  • #12 May exist as branched, straight or cyclic chains. We may categorized aliphatic carbon as to saturated and unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons. Saturated those with single chains such as alkanes, unsaturated such as alkenes and alkynes.
  • #15 Saturated sya because it has a maximum number of hydrogens in its structure. n – refers to the number of carbon atoms. Methane- release sa mga nabubulok na bagay.
  • #21 Hydrocrabons that can form ring structure.
