Carbon and its Compounds
कार्बन और उसके यौगिक
In this Class 10 Science topic from “Chemical Substances – Nature and Behaviour,” students explore why carbon forms an exceptionally large variety of compounds through tetravalency and catenation. They learn about covalent bonding, hydrocarbons, homologous series, functional groups, and basic organic nomenclature. The topic also explains key reactions such as combustion, oxidation, addition, and substitution, along with the properties and uses of ethanol, ethanoic acid, soaps, and detergents in everyday life.
