Some Carbon based compounds

Carbon -hydrogen compounds

Hydrocarbons are the compound of carbon having a carbon hydrogen bond. Such as CH₄, C₂H₆, C₂H₄, C₆H₆ etc. 

Carbon-oxygen compounds

There are many oxides of carbon compounds there such as carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon trioxide (CO₃) etc.

Carbon-sulfur compounds

The carbon-sulphide compounds are carbon disulphide (CS₂) and carbonyl sulphide (OCS). Carbon monosulphide (CS) etc.

Carbon-nitrogen compounds

The carbon-nitrogen compounds are cyanogen (CN)₂ , hydrogen cyanide (HCN), cyanogen chloride (CNCl) etc.

Carbon- halides compounds

The common carbon halides are carbon tetrafluoride (CF₄), carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), carbon tetrabromide (CBr₄), carbon tetraiodide (CI₄) etc
