- carbon - valency and electronic configuration
The atomic number of carbon is 6. Its electronic configuration is 2, 4. It requires,
4 electrons to achieve the inert gas electronic configuration.
- allotropes in carbon- diamond and graphite(difference in physical and chemical properties)
-bonding in carbon (covalnet bond)
• carbon requires 4 electrons to achieve the inert gas electronic configuration. But carbon cannot
form an ionic bond
• It could gain four electrons forming C4- cation. But it would be difficult for the
nucleus with six protons to hold on to ten electrons.
• It could lose four electrons forming C4+ cations. But it requires a large amount
of energy to remove four electrons.
• Thus, carbon overcomes this problem by sharing of its valence electrons with
other carbon atoms or with atoms of other elements.
• The bond formed by mutual sharing of electron pairs between two atoms in a
molecule is known as Covalent Bond
-types of bonds that carbon can form(single , double)
-lewis structures with examples

Chemistry is a very important subject when it comes to deciding careers in medicine, pharmacy or engineering. As a pharmaceutical graduate, I possess special knowledge in chemistry and have been guiding students through making their concepts easier with the chemical reactions and the hardest concept simplified into easier real-life examples.
-Basic chemistry
-Organic chemistry concepts (calculations, chemical reactions, etc)
- Inorganic chemistry (Biochemistry, etc)
-Chemical Reactions (including Grignard reagents, Redox reactions, etc)
-Advanced level (Graduate level)

You only need to share the topic and if you have a specific course overview, please share it with me so that I can help you out in the best possible way to teach you with the same concepts as you have been taught in the school/college/university.

Welcome to university students or masters and doctoral students!!! I teach the course of Natural Products Chemistry or Phytochemistry or Pharmacognosy. In this class we will learn about the methods of extracting, separating and identifying the chemical form of active chemical compounds (biologically active secondary compounds) from natural sources, such as medicinal and aromatic plants. We will also discuss what is known as chromatography, spectroscopy, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, magnetic resonance and advanced analysis devices used in this field.

This is in addition to knowing some important applications of these active materials in various fields, such as the pharmaceutical industry, agriculture, etc. We will also learn the practical and laboratory methods that are carried out in the laboratory to conduct toxicity, antioxidant, and diabetes analyses, etc.

Experience: About 20 years of practical experience in the field of chemistry, medicinal and aromatic plants and pharmacy with parallel training and private lessons for science and chemistry curricula.

With my qualifications and experience, I hold a master’s degree and a doctorate in organic chemistry (chemistry of natural products), in addition to other graduate degrees and a doctoral scholarship in pharmaceutical sciences in Belgium from the Erasmus Mendus Organization of the European Union.

Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds. Most organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen, but they may also include any number of other elements (e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, halogens, phosphorus, silicon, sulfur).

Most students struggle not because they don’t know the reactions, but because the fundamentals are not second nature. Working together we can fill in these gaps so that the student is able to approach the problem.
