Answer:
The two features of carbon that give rise to a large number of compounds are as follows: (i) Catenation: It is the ability to form bonds with other atoms of carbon. (ii) Tetravalency: With the valency of four, carbon is capable of bonding with four other atoms.

Answer:
Carbon can form very long chains of interconnecting carbon–carbon bonds, a property that is called catenation. Carbon-carbon bonds are strong and stable. Through catenation, carbon forms a countless number of compounds. Catenation (self linking of carbon atoms to form long chains) and Tetravalency are the two properties of carbon which lead to the formation of a large number of carbon compounds
