Answer:
The carbon atom is very small due to whichits outermost electrons are strongly held by the nucleus. So it is not possible to remove 4 electrons nor it is possible to gain 4 electrons . Since carbon atoms achieve the inert gas electron arrangement only by sharing of electrons. Therefore it forms covalent bond.
The reason for forming large no. of compounds :
1) the property of catenation ( the ability combine with other atoms )
2) due to its valency 4.
