How many bonds can each carbon make?
Each carbon atom in compounds normally shares each of its four valence electrons to make covalent bonds to other atoms, including other carbon atoms, in the compounds. However, this does not necessarily mean that each atom makes four bonds, because carbon often makes what are called "double" and "triple" bonds to other atoms. In a double bond, one carbon atom shares two electrons rather than a single electron in a bond to another atom, which also shares two electrons rather than a single electron to form the bond. In a triple bond, three electrons are contributed by each bonded atom. Therefore, each carbon atom can make up to four bonds, but often makes fewer than four.
How many bonding can one alone carbon atom do?
Each carbon atom can make 4 bonds to other atoms, even when 'alone' as in methane (CH4, 4 single bonds) or carbon dioxide (CO2, 2 double bonds).
What element can combine with silicon to make a compound?
One atom that can form a bond with silicon is oxygen, to form silicon dioxide, SiO2.
How many bonds can Mg 3s2 atom make without hybridization?
0 bonds
Why a carbon atom cannot make 4 bonds with another carbon atom?
Its all because of the electron dencity around the nucleus.when a carbon atom makes 3 bonds with another carbon atom there exists 1 sigma bond and 2 pi bonds,but it needs very high energy to have 1 sigma bond and 3 pi bonds that's why a carbon atom cannot make 4 bonds with another carbon atom.
What does silicon bond with?
it bonds with oyxgen to make sand

What element does silicon combine with to make quartz?
one atom and a silcon dioxide
How many covalent bonds can an atom usually make?
An atom can make a number of covalent bonds equal to the number of electrons it needs to fill its outer shell
What are the only parts an atom that make chemical bonds?
Electrons.
How many bonds are formed when hydrogen and oxygen combine to make water?
Two bonds in total. The oxygen atom forms two covalent bonds, one to each of two hydrogen atoms. This can be represented as H - O - H.
How many covalent bonds does silicon need to make its outer energy level?
Si has four valence electrons so silicon need to make four covalent bond.
How many bonds can C make?
Carbon is in Group V. Thus, it needs 4 more electrons so as to achieve the octet structure in its valence shell. As such, carbon has make at most 4 single covalent bonds. The least number of covalent bonds carbon can make is 2 double bonds. We do not see an example of carbon forming 1 covalent bond involving the sharing of all 4 of its valence electrons.
