Answer 2

Answer:

CATINATION

Explanation:

carbon have 4 electrons in its outermost shell..

it is difficult for carbon to gain 4 electrons and if it do so and form carbon 10 anion it will be difficult for the nucleus to carry 10 electrons together

and if it looses 4 electrons to form a cation , which is not possible because it requires a lot of energy to do so

thus, it forms covalent bonds and takes the form of CHAINS and RINGS

example: ethane, propane,ethene etc.
