04.Carbon and its Compounds

Carbon is found in earth crust 0.02 % in the form of minerals and found in atmosphere  0.03 % in the form of CO₂
Bonding in Carbon – The Covalent Bonding
The atomic number of carbon is 6. Carbon has four electrons in its outermost shell and carbon needs to gain or lose four electrons to attain noble gas configuration.
▶If the carbon atom gains four electrons to form anion then, it is difficult for a nucleus with six protons to hold on to  ten electrons.
▶If the carbon atom loses four electrons to form cation then,  it requires a large amount of energy to remove four electrons.
Thus, carbon overcomes this problem by sharing of its valence electrons with other atoms.  The shared electrons ‘belong’ to the outermost shells of both the atoms and lead to both atoms attaining the noble gas configuration.

Allotropy
Different forms of an element which have different physical properties but their chemical properties are same are called allotropes and this property is called Allotropy
.Allotropes of Carbon:
1. Crystalline allotropes - Diamond, Graphite, Fullerene
2. Amorphous forms – coal, coke, wood charcoal, animal charcoal, soot, gas carbon
Both diamond and graphite are made of carbon atoms but there is a difference between diamond and graphite.
1. Diamond is the hardest substance known while graphite is smooth and slippery.
2. In diamond each carbon atom is bonded to four other carbon atoms whereas in graphite each carbon atom is bonded to three other carbon atoms
3. The structure of diamond is tetrahedral while the structure of graphite is formed by the hexagonal layers
4. In diamond, all four valences of carbon are attached to four other carbon atoms, so due to the absence of free electrons, diamond is a bad conductor of electricity, while in graphite, three valences of carbon are attached to three other carbon atoms, so due to the presence of free electrons, graphite is a good conductor of electricity
Fullerenes: Fullerenes are allotropes of carbon. The first to be identified  was fullerene C-60, which has carbon atoms arranged in the shape of a football.  Fullerene was named by famous architect Buckminster Fuller.
Versatile Nature of Carbon:
The two properties of carbon, that are tetravalency and catenation, enables carbon to form a large number of compounds.
1. Catenation : Carbon has the unique ability to form chain by forming covalent bonds with other atoms of carbon. This property is called catenation.
Due to this property, carbon forms bonds with other carbon atoms to form straight chains, branched chains and ring type chain.
In addition, carbon atoms may be linked by single, double or triple bonds.
2. Tetravalency: Carbon has four electrons in its outermost shell i.e. the valency of carbon is four. so it is capable of bonding with four other atoms of carbon or atoms of any other mono-valent element.
Hydrocarbons : The chemical compounds which are made up of only carbon and hydrogen are called hydrocarbons. There are two types of hydrocarbon: 
Saturated Hydrocarbons :- Hydrocarbons, in  which the carbon atoms are connected by only  single bonds are called saturated hydrocarbons. such as alkanes.
Unsaturated hydrocarbons : - Hydrocarbons, in  which two carbon atoms are connected by double or triple  bonds are called unsaturated hydrocarbons, such as alkene and alkyne.
Alkane: Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons.

Primary suffix
Primary suffix indicates saturation or unsaturation of a hydrocarbon. This is attached to the root word.
Saturated hydrocarbon           → ane
Double bonded unsaturated hydrocarbon → ene
Triple bonded unsaturated hydrocarbon    → yne
Secondary suffix : Secondary Suffix is generally written after the primary suffix is written .It represents the functional group attached to the carbon chain. 

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF CARBON COMPOUNDS
1. Combustion : All the compounds of carbon burn in oxygen (air) and  give
C + O₂ → CO₂ + heat and light
CH₄ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O + heat and light
CH₃–CH₂OH + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O + heat and light
Saturated hydrocarbon generally burn in air with clean blue flame. But, in limited supply of air saturated hydrocarbon burn with sooty flame due to incomplete combustion. Unsaturated hydrocarbons burn in air with yellow flame with black smoke. The gas/kerosene stove used at home has inlets for air so that sufficient oxygen is available for the complete burning of the fuel to produce a smokeless blue flame. If the bottoms of cooking vessels getting blackened, it means that the air holes of stove are blocked and fuel is getting wasted. Due to presence of small amount of nitrogen and sulphur, coal and petroleum produces oxides of nitrogen and sulphur which are major pollutant in the environment
Oxidation
Carbon compounds are easily oxidised in the presence of oxidizing agents. When ethanol is heated with alkaline potassium permanganate or acidic potassium dichromate it oxidises in acetic acid [ethanoic acid].

Oxidising agent
Substance which oxidizes other substances by giving them oxygen are called oxidising agent
Addition Reaction
Unsaturated hydrocarbons react with hydrogen in the presence of catalysts such as palladium or nickel to form saturated hydrocarbons. This reaction is commonly used in the hydrogenation of vegetable oils. Vegetable oils generally have long unsaturated carbon chains while animal fats have saturated carbon chains. Animal fats generally contain saturated fatty acids which are  harmful for health. Oils containing unsaturated fatty acids  which are  good for health. For this reason it is better to use vegetable oil for cooking.

Substitution Reaction
Saturated hydrocarbons react with chlorine in the presence of sunlight,  chlorine is added to hydrocarbons in a very fast reaction. Chlorine can replace the hydrogen atoms one by one. When methane reacts with chlorine in sunlight, it forms methyl chloride (chloromethane) and hydrochloric acid.
CH₄     +     Cl₂   →    CH₃Cl  +  HCl    (in the presence of sunlight)
Ethanol 
Ethanol is a liquid at room temperature Ethanol is commonly called alcohol. Ethanol is an important component of all alcoholic drinks .Alcohol is a good solvent, so it is used in medicines like tincture iodine, cough syrup
1. Reaction of ethanol with sodium : 
Ethanol reacts with sodium to form sodium ethoxide and hydrogen gas.
2Na + 2CH₃CH₂OH → 2CH₃CH₂O–Na⁺ + H2
2. Formation of unsaturated hydrocarbons :
When Ethanol is heated with excess H₂SO at 443K, dehydration reaction occurs and ethene and water are formed as by product. In this reaction, sulfuric acid acts as a dehydrating agent which removes water from ethanol.

Effect of alcohol on living beings :
When large quantities of ethanol are consumed, it slow down metabolic processes and to depress the central nervous system. This results in lack of coordination, mental confusion, drowsiness, lowering of the normal inhibitions, and finally stupor
The commercial alcohol is made unfit for drinking by mixing in it some poisonous substances like methanol. and some dyes are added for identification This is called denatured alcohol.
Ethanoic acid :
Ethanoic acid is commonly called acetic acid.  5-8% solution of acetic acid in water is called vinegar and is used as a preservative in pickles. The melting point of pure ethanoic acid is 290 K and hence it often freezes during winter in cold climates. This gave rise to its name glacial acetic acid.
Reactions of ethanoic acid:
(i) Esterification reaction: Esters are most commonly formed by reaction of an acid and an alcohol. When ethanoic acid reacts with ethyl alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst, ethyl acetate (ester) is formed. This reaction is called esterification. 

Generally, esters are sweet-smelling substances. These are used in making perfumes and as flavouring agents. 
The ester reacts with sodium hydroxide to form an alcohol and a sodium salt (sodium ethanoate or sodium acetate) and water. This reaction is called saponification because it is used to make soap. Soaps are sodium or potassium salts of long chain carboxylic acids. 

Reaction with base: Ethanoic acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to form sodium acetate (acetate (salt)) and water.
NaOH + CH₃COOH → CH₃COONa + H₂O
Reaction of ethanoic acid with carbonate and hydrogen carbonate : Ethanoic acid reacts with carbonate and hydrogen carbonate to form salt, carbon dioxide and water.
2CH₃COOH + Na₂CO₃    → 2CH₃COONa + H₂O + CO₂
CH₃COOH + NaHCO₃    →  CH₃COONa + H₂O + CO₂
SOAPS AND DETERGENTS
The soaps are sodium or potassium salts of long-chain carboxylic acids. Soap is cannot be used in hard water, because hard water contains calcium and magnesium ions. Soaps form insoluble precipitates with these ions in hard water.
Detergents are generally sodium salts of sulphonic acids or ammonium salts of amines with chlorides or bromides ions.  Detergents  do not form insoluble recipitates with the calcium and magnesium ions in hard water. Thus, they remain effective in hard water.
Cleaning Process of Soap and Micelle
Soap molecule has two dissimilar ends. At one end is the hydrocarbon chain which is non-polar and oil-soluble (hydrophobic) whereas at the other end is the carboxylate ion which is polar and water soluble (hydrophilic). Thus, a non-potartait is soluble in oil/grease.  whereas a polar head is water- soluble. When soap is at the surface of water, its molecules arrange themselves in such a way that its ionic end is inside the water and the hydrocarbon tail  is outside the water. When a cloth with dirty spots is soaked with soap solution, the dirt dissolves in the hydrophobic end of the  soap and culster of molecules are formed in which the hydrophobic tails are in the interior of the cluster and the ionic ends are on the surface of the cluster. This formation is called a micelle. Soap in the form of a micelle is able to clean. because the oily dirt collected in the centre of the micelle. These micelles remain as colloidal solutions. Therefore, the dirt from the cloth is easily washed away

    Or Explain the action of soap in removing an oily spot from a piece of cloth. 
    Cleaning Process of Soap and Micelle
    Soap molecule has two dissimilar ends. At one end is the hydrocarbon chain which is non-polar and oil-soluble (hydrophobic) whereas at the other end is the carboxylate ion which is polar and water soluble (hydrophilic). Thus, a non-polar tail is soluble in oil/grease.  whereas a polar head is water- soluble. 
    When soap is at the surface of water, its molecules arrange themselves in such a way that its ionic end is inside the water and the hydrocarbon tail  is outside the water. 
    When a cloth with dirty spots is soaked with soap solution, the dirt dissolves in the hydrophobic end of the  soap and culster of molecules are formed which is called a micelle. Soap in the form of a micelle is able to clean. because the oily dirt collected in the centre of the micelle. These micelles remain as colloidal solutions. Therefore, the dirt from the cloth is easily washed away
