Chemistry Journal 3.07 Organic Chemistry Driving Question: What are the unique properties of carbon that allow for various organic compounds to be created? Key Ideas and Terms Notes FQ: What make... s the carbon atom essential for life on Earth? List the various sources of carbon in the environment. Air water rocks soil oceans and fossil fuels What ability does carbon have that life is based on? All carbon is recycled as it moves from one step in the carbon cycle to the next What is organic chemistry? The chemistry of carbon atoms FQ: How do the properties of carbon allow it to form complex molecules? Describe where carbon is found. Carbon is a nonmetal that is found in all ____nature both as a pure element and in various compounds ______________ _________________. Describe the bonding tendencies of carbon. Four valence electrons in its outermost energy level and it has a strong tendency to share those electrons in four bonds How do carbon atoms often naturally bond with each other? In chains rings plates or networks The atoms of which elements do carbon atoms readily bond with? Hydrogen oxygen nitrogen sulfur phosphorus and the halogens Describe two pure forms of carbon: • Diamond • Graphite The hardest known material, solid form of carbon is colorless and has an extremely high density of 3.514 g/cm^3 Soft,black,solid form of carbon that conducts electricity reasonably well and is easily broken FQ: What are the properties of organic compounds based on the functional group?
