The carbon has four valence electrons and Because it has four valence electrons, carbon needs four more electrons to fill its outer energy level. By forming four covalent bonds, carbon shares four pairs of electrons, thus filling its outer energy level

I learned about carbon atoms and electrons and more things about atoms and chemicals and minerals.

the structure of the carbon tom, shows that it has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons, and 4 valence electrons on its shell,  saturated hydrocarbons have single bonds examples are ethane propane while unsaturated carbon have multiple bonds. A tom will be stable if it has 4 more  valence electrons

# data[].attributes.body
For an atom to reach stability, it requires a complete set of 8 valence electrons. Since a carbon atom has 4 electrons in its valence shell, it will have to form covalent bonds and pair its 4 electrons to fill its outermost energy level for it to be stable.

a carbon atom, which has 4 valence electrons, may produce a large variety of compounds with a wide range of functions, which explains why carbon is so important in living things. In its outer shell, carbon has four electrons and it has the capability of forming four covalent connections with other atoms or molecules.

# data[].attributes.body
The structure of a carbon atom shows that it has 4 electrons on its outermost shell. This means that it can form bonds with 4 other atoms in order to be stable and to follow the octet rule which states that an atom with 8 electrons in its valence shell is a stable atom.

# data[].attributes.body
Because a carbon atom has four valence electrons, it would need 4 more in order for it to be stable. Because of this it can form many compounds while forming covalent bonds. By sharing the four pairs of electrons it would mean that the atom is now stable as it has filled its outer shell.

# data[].attributes.body
Carbon atoms have 4 valence electrons allowing it to form 4 covalent bonds with up to 4 other atoms. The carbon atoms do this to satisfy the octet rule which means an atom is most stable when it has 8 electrons in its valence shell.

# data[].attributes.body
the structure affects the bonds it forms since the structures are results of carbon's ability to form 4 covalent bonds.  the carbon contains 4 electrons on the valence shell, it'll need 4 more in order to become stable. they can become stable by forming a bond, specifically a covalent bond. once that happens, the carbon shares 4 pairs of valence electrons, therefore making it stable.

# data[].attributes.body
The structure of a carbon atom represents it having 4 electrons in its outermost shell. Because it needs or wants to follow the octet rule, it will form bonds to attain a full outer shell.

# data[].attributes.body
A carbon atom can form bonds with other carbon atoms or other elements' atoms. Carbon requires four extra electrons to fill its outer energy level since it possesses four valence electrons. Carbon shares four pairs of electrons by establishing four covalent bonds, filling its outer energy level.

# data[].attributes.body
Carbon Bonding, because it has four valence electrons, carbon needs four more electrons to fill its outer energy level.

carbon needs four more electrons to fill its outer energy level. carbon shares four pairs of electrons, thus filling its outer energy level. A carbon atom can form bonds with other carbon atoms or with the atoms of other elements.
