Why cabon form covalent bond only |
|
Answer» ⏺️It\'s because carbon is tetravalent. ⏺️It is not possible to remove 4 electrons or, to add as many as 4 atoms to a carbon atom. ⏺️Since carbon atoms can achieve the inhert gas electron arrangement only by sharing of electrons, therefore, carbon always form covalent bonds. Because the carbon atoms can achieve the inert gas electron arrangement only by the sharing of electrons that\'s why carbon always form covalent bonds. The valency of carbon is 4 so to gain or loose electrons lots of amount of energy is needed as a result it has to share electrons and thus forms covalent bonds |
