Question

Information about carbon it's occurrence ,structure and presentation

Answer 1

Here is your answer :

Carbon is a very important chemical element, with a chemical symbol of C. All known life on Earth needs it. Carbon has atomic mass 12 and atomic number 6. It is a nonmetal, meaning that it is not a metal.

Appearance graphite: black
diamond: clear

Carbon in nature is found in three forms called allotropes: diamond, graphite, and fullerenes. Graphite, with clay, is in pencils. It is very soft. The carbon atoms in it make rings, which are on top of each other and slide very easily. Diamonds are the hardest natural mineral. Fullerenes are a "soccer ball" shape of carbon. They are mostly of interest to science. A special, man-made, tube-shaped allotrope of carbon is the carbon nanotube. Carbon nanotubes are very hard, so they might be used in armor. Nanotubes might be useful in nanotechnology. There are 10 million known carbon compounds.

Answer 2

Here is your answer-

Carbon is a tetravalent element..

It occurs by forming covalent compounds with other elements...it has the ability to form bonds with carbon atoms and produce longer chains..this is called catenation.

It forms strong covalent bonds mostly with hydrogen atoms
