Explanation:
The ability of an element to catenate is primarily based on the bond energy of the element to itself, which decreases with more diffuse orbitals (those with higher azimuthal quantum number) overlapping to form the bond.

Answer:
Catenation is the ability of an element, to combine with the same species of its atom covalently to form rings and chains. Carbon has highest catenation power in periodic table since it can form large amount of compunds.
