    Carbon is unique in its ability to form four bonds, allowing it to combine with other elements to create a diverse range of organic compounds. Organic compounds contain carbon and may also contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and other elements. They are produced by living things and can also be synthesized artificially from sources like petroleum. Common organic compounds include gasoline, kerosene, LPG, ethanol, acetone, and acetic acid, which have various industrial and household uses as fuels, solvents, and more. Understanding the properties of organic compounds like odor, viscosity, volatility, and flammability is important for safety and proper usage.

    Carbon Compounds

    Why carbon is special among


    other elements?
    •Carbon is the only element that
    can form so many different
    compounds because each
    carbon atom can form four
    chemical bonds.
    Organic Compounds
    Organic compounds are group of compounds
    that contain the element carbon. Organic
    compounds contain carbon and hydrogen
    combined with other elements.
    Examples: Oxygen, Nitrogen, ethyl alcohol,
    gasoline, acetic acid and etc.
    These kind of compounds are produced by
    plants and animals.
    However, these carbon-containing
    compounds can also be produced
    artificially.
    Examples: organic compounds
    produced from petroleum, LPG,
    kerosene, lubricating oil and etc.
    Uses of
    Organic
    Compounds
    Gasoline
    Kerosene
    LPG
    Ethanol
    Acetone
    Acetic acid
    Activity 1:
    Organic Compounds and
    Their Uses
    Methane
    Black in colour, in making motor tyre and printing ink,
    in the production of light and energy, in making methyl
    alcohol, formaldehyde and chloroform etc.

    Butane
    In liquid state it is used as LPG fuel.

    Ethylene
    In fruit ripening and fruits preservator.
    Polythene
    It used for the producing electrical resistance in wires and
    cables, in making layer in the cap of the bottle in the
    production of non-crackable bottles, pipes, buckets etc.

    Polystyrene
    Is used for the production of caps of bottles of acid.

    Ethyl bromine
    It is for making local anaesthesia.
    Formament
    In making medicine of throats in making chewing tablets.
    Glycerol
    It is used for making nitro-glycerine, in cleaning the components of
    watches, in ink of stamp, in shoes polish and cosmetics, in
    transparent soaps, in pain reliever medicines of any fractured part
    of the body organs, in sweets, wine and fruits preservators etc.
    Ethyl acetate
    In making medicines, artificial perfumes etc.
    Carbon-tetrachloride
    In the form of fire extinguisher.
    What are organic compounds?
    •These are compounds that contain the
    element carbon. These kind of
    compounds are produced by plants and
    animals example are ethyl alcohol, sugar,
    and acetic acid. But some of them were
    produced artificially like LPG, gasoline,
    lubricating oil, and kerosene.
    GASOLINE

    -Fuel for
    vehicle
    KEROSENE

    Used to removed Used for portable


    Fuel for lamps (gasera)
    paints cooking stove
    LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)

    Fuel for cars Fuel for gas stove


    ETHANOL

    Used as main ingredient


    Use as disinfectant in liquors

    -used to
    removed
    nail polish
    ACETIC ACID

    Can be used to treat Used as component of


    fungal infection vinegar (4% by volume)
    •Why do you think these kinds
    of organic compounds are
    very important?
    •These common organic
    compounds are very
    important because they have
    many uses at home and in
    the industry.
    Properties of
    Organic Compounds
    Odor

    -is
    the smell
    of the
    compound
    Viscosity
    -is a measure of a
    fluid’s resistance to
    flow. If the viscosity
    is high, the flow of
    the liquid is slow or
    the liquid is thick.
    Volatility
    -isthe measure
    of the tendency
    of substance to
    evaporate or to
    turn into
    gaseous state.
    Flammability
    -is
    the
    measure of
    how easily a
    material burns
    Why is it important to know the
    properties of these kinds of organic
    compounds?
    •It is important to have knowledge
    about the properties of these
    compounds so people will be
    aware of their behavior, uses, and
    effects on people.
