Question

what is catenation and catenation property of carbon​

Answer 1

Answer:

catenation is the bonding of atoms of the same element into a series, called a chain. A chain or a ring shape may be open if its ends are not bonded to each other, or closed if they are bonded in a ring. The words to catenate and catenation reflect the Latin root catena, "chain".

Catenation occurs most readily with carbon, which forms covalent bonds with other carbon atoms to form longer chains and structures. ... Carbon is most well known for its properties of catenation, with organic chemistry essentially being the study of catenated carbon structures (and known as catenae).

Answer 2

Answer:

Catenation: The self linking property of carbon atom to form a large carbon chain is called Catenation. Due to the property of catenation, carbon can form straight, branched or ring structures giving rise to large number of compounds
