Asingle carbon atom can form a maximum of covalent bond(s).

Answer : A single carbon atom can form a maximum of Four (4) covalent bond(s).

Explanation : A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs.

Formation of covalent bond depends on the number of valence electrons. Electronic configuration of Carbon (C) is :

Valence electronic configuration of C is :

Carbon have four valence electron that means Carbon can form maximum of four covalent bonds.

For example : In methane (CH4) Cabon can share four electrons with four Hydrogen atoms and can form four covalent bonds with 4 H.

alfred von schlieffen, german army chief of staff, was given instructions to devise a strategy that would be able to counter a joint attack. in december, 1905, he began circulating what later became known as the schlieffen plan. schlieffen argued that if war took place it was vital that france was speedily defeated.

answer; the numbers of valence electrons in the acetic acid molecule (ch3co2h) is 24;
