Question
Chapter 22.1, Problem 7LC
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Carbon atoms form four covalent bonds that need to be explained.
Concept Introduction: When both the participating atoms equally share the electrons, a covalent bond is formed.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 7LC
Carbon forms four covalent bonds as it has 4 electrons in its outer shell, to make itself stable and to complete its octet, it requires 8 electrons.
Explanation of Solution
Given Information: Carbon atoms form four covalent bonds.
Carbon has 4 electrons in its outermost shell and requires 4 more to complete its octet. Each covalent bond requires a sharing of 1 electron per atom to make the bond. It has exactly 4 bonds to make to complete its octet.
Conclusion
Carbon has 4 electrons in its outer shell, to make itself stable and to complete its octet, it requires 8 electrons.
