Question

What is the Valency of H in C2H6?​

Answer 1

Answer:

It does not depend on other atoms to which it is bonded. Valency of carbon is 4 whether it is in CH4 or in C2H6. Valency of carbon is considered to be 4 because it needs extra 4 electrons to complete its octet or 4 electrons should be removed for this purpose. Valency has nothing to do with bonding.
