化学の本の和訳
高校２年、夏休みの宿題です。
普通の英語の和訳もままならないのに
外国の化学の本を和訳するのは
私にはちょっと厳しいので
質問させていただきました。
打ち間違えがあったら
すみません。
全文ではなくて２、３行とかでも結構です。
よろしくおねがいします。
The chemistry of Carbon : Organic Chemistry
Hydrocarbons : From Simple to Complex
A natural question chemistry students ask is "Why are there so many compounds of carbon?"
The answer: Carbon contains for valence electrons and so can form four covalent bonds
to other carbans or elements.(A common mistake organic chemistry students make when drawing structures is not ensuring that every carbon has four bonds attached to it.)
The bonds that carbon forms are strong covalent bonds (Chapter 7 covers covalent bonds),
and carbon has the ability to band to itself in long chains and rings.
It can form double and triple bands to another carbon or to another element.
No other element, with the possible exception of silicon, has this ability.
(And the bonds slicon makes are not nearly as strong as carbon's.)
These properties allow carbon to form the vast multitude of compounds needed to
make an amoeba or a butterfly or a baby .
The simplest organic compounds are called the hydrocarbons,
compounds composed of carbon and hydrogen.
Economically, the hydrocarbons are extremely important to us - primarily as fuels.
Gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons. We use methane (natural gas) and propane and butane,
all hybrocarbons may contain only single bonds (the alkanes) or double bonds (the alkenes)
or triple bonds (the alkynes). And they may form rings containing single or
double bonds (ｃｙcloalkanes, cycloalkenes, and aromatics).
Even compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen have a great deal of
diversity; imagine ｗhat can happen when a few more elements are miｘed in .
