Explain the tetravalency ofcarbon.

1.	Explain the tetravalency ofcarbon.
Answer» Answer: As carbon possesses ATOMIC number 6, it means that carbon atom has a TOTAL of 6 electrons. ... Thus, carbon is tetravalent (It means valency of carbon is 4.) and can form 4 covalent bonds with not only other atoms but other carbon atoms as WELL. This is called tetravalency of carbon. hope it helps
