Question

state two main reason for crabon a very large number of compounds give reason why crabon from convalent bonding ,what happens​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. canon shows catenation means tendency to form bond with other carbon atom

2. it's valency is 4 due to which carbon can lose, Hgain ,or share electrons

Answer 2

Answer:

This is due to catenation and tetravalency of the carbon atom

Explanation:

   Tetravalency. Carbon readily forms four covalent bonds to other atoms.

   Catenation. Carbon readily forms covalent bonds to other carbon atoms. Carbon-carbon bonds are more stable than many other element-to-same-element bonds. Together with the first statement one can form the hypothesis that tetravalent catenated carbon compounds are generally more stable than their non-carbon analogues. This hypothesis was shown to be true for a large variety of compounds.

   Varying bond order and hybridisation. Carbon atoms can share not only a single electron with another atom to form a single bond, but can also share two or three electrons, forming a double or triple bond. This allows for various different angles between bonds.

   Carbon has a rather average electronegativity. Carbon readily forms covalent bonds to many other elements.

but, ionic compounds of carbon do exist, exaple, NaCN, KCN, etc.,
