Question

How many bonds can a carbon form when its electronic configuration is 2, 4?

  1. 1
  2. 2
  3. 3
  4. 4

Hint:

Carbon can share its electrons in valence shell to complete its octet.

The correct answer is: 4


    • Carbon has 6 electrons and 4 electrons are in valence shell, 4 more electrons are required to complete its octet and achieve stability.
    • It can share each of its four electrons to form 4 covalent bonds as in the case of CH4 where each hydrogen atom shares its electron with one electron of carbon.
