Question

What is tetravalency and catenation?(3mark). Best answer will be given brainliest for sure.

Answer 1

a carbon atom is complete its octet by sharing its valence electrons by other atom,as a result a carbon atom forms four covalent bond by sharing valence electrons with other atoms,known as tetravalency...
catenation--- catenation is a binding of an element to itself through covalent bonds to form chain or ring molecules ex- carbon............hope this will help u.... plzzz mark as a brainliest

Answer 2

a carbon atom completes its octet only by sharing its valence electeons with other atoms. as a result,a carbon atom forms 4 covalent bonds by sharing val electrons with other atom is called tetravalence

in chem,catenation is rhe bonding of atoms of the same elem into a series ,called a chain. it occurs most radily with carbon which forms covalent bonds with other carbon atoms to form longer chains and strut due to prese of the vast no of org comp in nature
