it is the ability of atom to form long chain
it is mainly seen in carbon because the molecular orbital hybridization and the ability to form different kinds of covalent bonds
by overlapping we can say carbon has valence shell -
p orbital is capable of forming longer p-p sigma bonded chains
you will learn further in 11th and 12th in organic chemistry
