Generally organic compounds have lots of carbons (tens of them in number). This is because of a property called catenation which allows carbon to form long chain of like atoms (other carbon atoms). Such property is usually not shown by other elements. Silicon show it to some extent. It has some compounds with upto 8 silicon chains.
