We know that Compounds of Carbon can be Hard as well as Soft. This was about the Physical Properties of Carbon. But to know the element well, it is mandatory that we know about its Chemical properties too! In this lesson let us get one step closer in unraveling the mysterious element of the Periodic …
Compounds formed of Hydrogen and Carbon are nothing else but Hydrocarbons. You will be baffled to know that we actually use these Hydrocarbons in our daily lives! Shocked? Let us get to know these important Hydrocarbons and also their uses!
There are thousands of Organic Compounds. How do we study them? Well… to make our study easy, these compounds are classified on the basis of Functional Groups. And which are these groups? Watch this lesson to unravel them! Let me tell you a fact here, these thousand compounds have a unique speciality, they all are …
What if we tell you that black coal and a shiny diamond has a fundamental similarity? Yes, you heard us right. Both black coal and the diamond are made up of carbon.
