Answered by mahendrarajbhar83867

Answer:

Carbon is versatile because it can form single, double, and triple bonds. It can also form chains, branched chains, and rings when connected to other carbon atoms. The two characteristic features seen in carbon, that is, tetravalency and catenation, put together give rise to a large number of compounds.
