Why carbon atoms are important in organic molecules ?

It makes it possible to form cyclic and chain-shaped molecules by covalent bonds.

Carbon is from the heart of stars. But what really characterizes it is this extraordinary ability to form long molecules, polymers as experts say. Now, life is fond of these long molecules and it probably could not exist without them. Moreover, when we talk about life, we often say that it is entirely based on carbon chemistry. This is to say the importance of this element.


Kinds of bonds carbon can form:

The carbon bonds can be classified according to the number of bonds between two atoms, single bond (sp3 hybridization), double (sp2 hybridization), or triple (sp1 hybridization), the latter are rare in a living organism. Or depending on the atom with which it will pair (another carbon, hydrogen, oxygen nitrogen, or even sulfur ...)

Carbon is one of the most common elements

Can form bonds and double bonds with up to 4 other atoms, including other carbon atoms

If you add more elements and you can create amino acids, and that is the base of all proteins.

If you need more help on this, watch some videos by Neil Degrasse Tyson. World-renown astrophysicist (and my idol) who does lots of talks about things just like this.<span />

How can an experiment support or fail a hypothesis?
Zina [86]
Well a hypothesis is guess about an experiment and how it works or is preformed. If your supporting one then you agree with how its done and how it works and you got good results. If you fail a hypothesis that means you most likely tried and didn't succeed or didn't get the results you wanted. Sorry if this is confusing the question kinda confused me.
