Question

If Carbon have 4 bonds. so why atomic number of carbon is 6. why it not 8.​ because 1 bond 2 electrons.​

Answer 1

There is no 4 bond formed between carbon because of the carbon electron orbitals. Since it has 4 valence electrons, it needs 4 more to electrons to fill its outer energy level. It does so by forming covalent bonds with another element, in order to complete its Octet rule.

HERE IS UR ANSWER

$_____________________________$

Having the atomic number 6, every carbon atom has a total of six electrons. The carbon atom's four valence electrons can be shared by other atoms that have electrons to share, thus forming covalent (shared-electron) bonds.
