Question

Why does carbon become stable after sharing four elctrons?what type of bond is formed by sharing?

Answer 1

Carbon complete its octate after sharing 4 electrons. therefore it become stable.....
carbon forms covalent bond....it would be single, double or triple covalent bond

Answer 2

Explanation:

The carbon has atomic no. as 6 and its electric configration 2,4 and it is tetravalent.thus,carbon has 4 valence electron to aquire the nearest noble gas configuration.Only way is to share the four valence electron with the electrons of other atoms.

the type of bond formed by sharing electron is covalent bond.
