A diagram of a typical carbon atom would show a nucleus comprised of 6 protons and 6 neutrons. It would also have two electrons in the first energy level, then 4 electrons in the second, or valence energy level (1s22s22p2.)
The valence electron pattern for a carbon atom is [He]2s22p2. Carbon has a total of four valence electrons in its ground state configuration.
it has 4 dots
Electronic configaration of C is 2,4. So it has Four.
The order is: Iodine (7 valence electrons) Carbon (4 valence electrons) Calcium (2 valence electrons) Sodium (1 valence electron)
Neutral Carbon atoms contain 6 electrons and 6 protons 2 electrons are found in the 1st electron ring and 4 in the outer ring to reach a stable electron (8 in the outershell) arrangement carbon requires 4 covalent bonds to be formed
it shares four.
The electron-dot representation of a carbon atom show only four dots because the dots represent only the valence electrons (the ones placed in the outermost shell). The carbon atom has four electrons in it's outermost shell. !
it has 4 dots
valency of carbon is positive as it gives it electron so it is positively charge
Electronic configaration of C is 2,4. So it has Four.
The order is: Iodine (7 valence electrons) Carbon (4 valence electrons) Calcium (2 valence electrons) Sodium (1 valence electron)
There is no non-metal with one valence electron. Every element with 1 valence electron belongs to the alkali metals family

Four. Each electron can join with an electron from another atom to form a strong covalent bond.
Carbon has four valence electrons. Each of theseelectrons can pair with an electron from another atom to form a strong covalent bond. In carbon, all the electrons with the principal quantum number 2 are valence electrons, but the two electrons with principal quantum number 1 are not.
Hydrogen has one valence electron while carbon has 4. Since this is a covalent bond, a molecule is formed so all you need do is draw a C for carbon with 4 dashes forming an... 'x' around the carbon. At the end of each carbon write a H for hydrogen ....H ....| H-C-H ....| ....H Something like that but all dashes the same length and ignoring the periods..
Look what column it is in within the Periodic Table. The first column has 1 valance electron. The second column has 2 valence electrons. The entire section of shorter columns (all metals) also have two valence electrons. The tall column after that (with Boron ) has three valence electrons. The tall column after that (with carbon) has four valence electrons. This pattern continues until you reach the final column, the noble gasses (eg. Neon, argon, xenon); these all have 8 valence electrons.
