Tysiy pentane?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Catenation and tetravalency/covalency

Explanation:

CATENATION:-

Catenation can be defined as the self-linking of atoms of an element to form chains and rings. 

COVALENCY:-

Covalency of an element is defined as the number ofcovalent bonds formed by the atom of the element with other atoms. Covalency of carbon in the CO molecule is three because the carbon atom can be an acceptor of an electron pair. Thus, in CO molecule, 2 covalent and one coordinate bond is present.

Answer 2

Answer:

BTS

please mark me as brainliest

Due to its large valency, carbon atoms can form covalent bonds with a number of carbon atoms as well as with a large number of other atoms such as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, chlorine and many more atoms. This leads to the formation of a large number of organic compounds.
