Explanation: A carbon atom forms a covalent bond with is also included in most organic compounds.
other atoms because its outer shell is half full as shown Q. 2 Answer the following questions
in the figure below: A. Why are carbon and its compounds used as fuels?
Ans : A. Carbon and its compounds used as fuels due to
the following reasons:
1. When most of the carbon and its compounds is burnt
in air, it gives a lot of heat, light and energy.
2. They have high calorific value. Thus, on burning in air,
they give large amount of heat and energy.
In the covalent bond, sharing of electrons takes place. 3. When saturated hydrocarbon (hydrocarbon having
For example: CH4 single bond) is burnt in air, less smoke with a clean

Carbon: An Important Element
Q. 3. Explain the difference 1. For making ornaments, properties like transparency
of substance, reflection of light and hardness should be
present.
2. But in graphite, all these properties are absent.
3. It is soft, brittle, black and slippery in nature.
4. Thus, it is not used in making ornaments.
C. Limewater turns milky when CO2 is passed through it.
When limewater (CaOH)2 is passed through CO2, the
following reaction takes place:
(CaOH)2 + CO2→ CaCO3 + H2O
Limewater Calcium
Carbonate
1. In this reaction, when limewater comes in contact
with the gas released in the form of an effervescence, it
turns milky. This is chemical test for carbon dioxide gas.
2. When limewater turns milky, it is confirmed that the
effervescence is of carbon dioxide.
