Carbon can form many compounds than any other
elements.
Carbon has 4 valence electrons which can form stable covalent bonds like C-H , C-C ,C=C , C=O , C-Cl etc. |
This is because :
2. Carbon can form these different arrangement because
C-C, C-H bonds are strong, inert and
stable in the molecules.
3. Carbon has 4 valence electrons. When carbon forms chains by forming covalent bonds with
another carbon, this leaves that carbon 2 other valence electrons not bonded.
Then those valence electrons can
form C-H, C-O,C-I,C-F,C-Cl , C-Br etc bonds by sharing
electrons with other
atoms.
The carbon which is already forms covalent bonded with another carbon atoms can form stable covalent bonds with hydrogen , oxygen and halogens atoms. |
