Answer:
Carbon being tetravalent, is neither capable of losing all of its four valance electrons nor it can easily accept four electrons to complete its octet because both of these conditions are energetically less favourable. Therefore carbon atom prefers to complete its octet by sharing of electrons and hence forms covalently bonded compounds.
