Family: the tetrels (carbon family)
Group: Group 14]]> 2019-10-25 01:14:14 UTC https://padlet.com/nickchang4_1/crdhbkr9hi5w/wish/402365378 Physical, Chemical Properties nickchang4_1 https://padlet.com/nickchang4_1/crdhbkr9hi5w/wish/402365881 Carbon is a soft solid element and the color is dull grey or black. Carbon does not dissolve in, or react with, water or acids, but it does react with oxygen. Diamond is the hardest natural substance ever found in the discoveries, while another kind of carbon, grapphite, is one of the most softest material ever. Carbon can combine with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2 ) or carbon monoxide (CO). Carbon has a high boiling point at 4,827 °C.

2. There are in total of three forms of carbon that can be discovered in the nature world. They are the amorphous, graphite, and diamond. Although they are forms of carbon, they have quite different properties. 
3. Carbon existed on the world for a long time. It is one of the most ancient element, and it has been used since the ancient times. 
4. Graphites is one of the softest materials, while on the other hand, diamonds are very hard. 
5. Carbon has the ability to form nearly ten million different compounds! 
6. The word carbon means from the Latin carbo, meaning “coal,” “charcoal"

Coal is very important in our daily lives because it produces a huge amount of electricity; but it is bad for the environment. When coal is burnt, it produces Carbon dioxide and it is easy to get in contact since it contacts just by inhaleling. According to ethanolrfa.org, when CO2 is inhaled, it goes into the lungs, it dissolves in the water there diffuses across the alveolar-capillary membrane, and then they will go in the bloodstream. When it have contact with water, it forms carbonic acid, making the blood acidic. So CO2 in the bloodstream lowers the blood pH.  Besides from impacting the health of humans, it harms the environment. The overloads carbon dioxide in the atmosphere traps additional heat from sun and the temperature of the earth increases, causing global warming. Global warming can lead to many issues like flooding and rising sea levels.]]> 2019-10-25 01:24:18 UTC https://padlet.com/nickchang4_1/crdhbkr9hi5w/wish/402368255 Natural Form of Carbon nickchang4_1 https://padlet.com/nickchang4_1/crdhbkr9hi5w/wish/402368899 2019-10-25 01:26:20 UTC https://padlet.com/nickchang4_1/crdhbkr9hi5w/wish/402368899 History, Discovery nickchang4_1 https://padlet.com/nickchang4_1/crdhbkr9hi5w/wish/402369433 Carbon has already been used and known since the ancient times in the form of soot, charcoal, graphite and diamonds. Ancient cultures did not realize, of course, that these substances were different forms of the same element. It was still named element before a scientist from French - Antoine Lavoisier named carbon and have done numerous amount of experiments. In 1772, he and other chemists cooperate to buy a diamond, which they let it be stayed in a closed glass jar. They focused the sun’s rays on the diamond with a huge glass and saw the diamond starting to burn, then disappeared. Lavoisier then concluded that diamond and charcoal were from the same element, named carbon.]]> 2019-10-25 01:27:50 UTC https://padlet.com/nickchang4_1/crdhbkr9hi5w/wish/402369433 MLA Citations nickchang4_1 https://padlet.com/nickchang4_1/crdhbkr9hi5w/wish/402369584 “404 Error Page.” Renewable Fuels Association, ethanolrfa.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Module-2-Handout-How-Inhaled-CO2-Affects-the-Body-–-Fact-Sheet.

Coal, which is one of the major sources for power, is mostly carbon combine with a little of other elements; including hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen. The element carbon is also a writing and artists' materials. The core in the pencils are actually not lead, but people call it because of the look. They are the mixture of clay and graphite. Carbon dioxide can be used in drinks carbonatation, like pepsi, cola and sprite. It is also used in fire extinguishers and, in solid state, as a dry ice. Carbon monoxide is widely used as reduction agent in many metallurgic processes.

The carbon family contains the following elements: carbon, silicon, germanium, tin, and lead. The carbon family (tetrels) is located near to the   middle of the periodic table, with nonmetals to its right and metals to its left. This familie's all contains four valence electrons of atoms of these elements. The family is also called the crystallogens. The elements in the tetrels can be found in numerous of compounds. Carbon is the only element in the group that can be found pure in nature. Carbon can form up to 10 million compounds, and the most common one, Carbon Dioxide. It is bonded with a carbon and two oxygen atoms. Factories and vehicles emits the most carbon dioxide, which harms the human body, and the environment also.
