Question

The property of catenation is strongestin carbon because :

Answer 1

In chemistry, catenation is the bonding of atoms of the same element into a series, called a chain. ... Catenationoccurs most readily with carbon, which forms covalent bonds with othercarbon atoms to form longer chains and structures. This is the reason for the presence of the vast number of organic compounds in nature.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The large number of organic compounds is due to the ability of carbon atom to form long chains with other carbon atoms through the sharing of electrons. This unique property of carbon is known as catenation
