The structure that results when carbon atoms bond to one another depends on the type of bond that is formed. If all of the bonds are single, the carbon atoms will all be tetrahedral. If some of the bonds are double, the carbon atoms with one double bond will be trigonal planar. If a triple bond forms, the atoms in that bond will have a linear structure. Carbon atoms with 2 double bonds will also be linear.
For the most part compounds create tetrahedrals, but there are exceptions. They create tetrahydrals since they have 4 electrons, but they want to eight electrons to follow the octet rule, so they create 4 bonds, but these 4 bond aren't just a flat shape, the molecules connected to the carbon separate as far away from each other as they can get because of the electrons forcing each other away (electrons have negative charges, so when a negative meets a negative charge, they repel).
The key shapes of a carbon based molecule are triangles, tetrahedrons, pentagons, hexagons, heptagons, octagons, etc. Also, square pyramids, octahedrons, and squares.
Circles form sugars while straight chains form cellulose, glycogen and proteins.
chained, web, and ring
linear, branched, ringed
The 3 basicshapes of carbon molecules are ring, branched, and straight chain.
Carbon can only form bonds with a maximum of 4 other molecules. Carbon can only form bonds with a maximum of 4 other molecules.

because of the diffrence in the position of anomeric carbon atom left or right
right handed alpha helices, left handed alfa helices, and beta sheets
Carbon molecules can assume three types of shapes. These types are trigonal, linear, and tetrahedral, and can be found in every part of a person's daily life.
The large diversity of shapes of biological molecules is possible because of carbon.
Carbon disulfide is linear. S=C=S where '=' stands for a double bond.
Straight chain, branched chain, and ring
The 3 basicshapes of carbon molecules are ring, branched, and straight chain.
Carbon is able to form many different shapes and sizes of chains.
carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide.
Carbon can form four bonds with different elements and/or other carbon elements.
It forms very strong bonds.
Carbon can only form bonds with a maximum of 4 other molecules. Carbon can only form bonds with a maximum of 4 other molecules.
Carbon atoms can form straight chains, branched chains, and rings. They do NOT form geodesic domes.
