Question

One atom of carbon _____. A.has four electron shells B.can bond with up to four other atoms C.forms a special shape called a tetrahedron D.is part of all inorganic compounds

Answer 1

it can bond with up to four other atoms

Answer 2

B.can bond with up to four other atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

One atom of Carbon, as you know the Atomic number of Carbon is 6, this means that in the second orbit it has 4 electrons which are free to bond with any element that they want, so as the atomic number is 6, that means it has 6 electron shells, and we know that carbon form organic compounds, and tetrahedron is the shape that carbon takes when its mixed with other 4 atoms, so the answer would be B.can bond with up to four other atoms.
