Question

why carbon form long carbon-carbon chain?

Answer 1

Carbon forms long chains because it is highly reactive, and in different arrangements like

C-C-C-C-C-C

'

C

'

C

NOTE - It is so reactive that it forms more than 6th lion compound with hydrogen only

Answer 2

Hey mate.....
Here's ur answer......☺️

Bcoz each carbon is identical, they all have four valence electrons, so that they can easily bond with other carbon atoms to form long chains or rings. Infact a long carbon atom can bond with another carbon atom two or three times to make double and triple covalent bond between two carbon atoms.
