CBSE Class 10 Chemistry Worksheet

This document contains 30 questions about carbon and its compounds. Carbon forms many stable compounds due to strong covalent bonds. It is the basis of many materials in daily life like plastics, fabrics and fuels. Organic compounds are classified by their functional groups, which determine physical and chemical properties. Ethanol and ethanoic acid undergo esterification reactions. Soap works by forming micelles but is less effective in hard water due to metal ion precipitation.
