Hello, so carbon, the most important property about carbon is the fact that it has that tetravallant property.
00:11
What this means is that it has four electrons in a valent shell, so the valency is four.
00:18
Okay, so you know that it's also able to form compounds between itself and of course, and hydrogen, which is known as a hydrocarbon, right? so there are three types of hydrocarbons.
00:34
So we have the alkanes.
00:42
We've got the alkenes.
00:45
We've got the alkenes.
00:51
So these are compounds between carbon and then hydrogen.
00:58
There you've got alkynes.
01:01
Sorry.
01:03
You've got alkynes.
01:05
Oh no...
