Carbon is a non metal.It is in the 14th group of the periodic table. Electronegativity of carbon is 2.5.
sp carbons are more electronegative. The larger the 's' character of the atom, the closer the electrons are held to the nucleus. sp3 carbons are the least electronegative as the 'p' character forces the electrons to exist further from the nucleus, decreasing electronegativity.
Firstly, carbon is only very slightly electronegative. Secondly, carbon itself doesn't have a positive inductive effect, you are probably thinking of alkyl groups. There, the excess electrons basically come from the hydrogens attached to the carbons.

The prefixes for naming hydrocarbons are based on the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. They include: meth- (1 carbon), eth- (2 carbons), prop- (3 carbons), but- (4 carbons), pent- (5 carbons), hex- (6 carbons), hept- (7 carbons), oct- (8 carbons), non- (9 carbons), dec- (10 carbons).

there are 4 carbons in oxaloacetic acid
Pyruvic acid is C3H4O3 and has 3 carbon atoms.
Vinylic and aryl carbons are least reactive towards free radical substitution because they are part of stable double or aromatic systems, which involve resonance stabilization. In the case of vinylic carbons, the sp² hybridization leads to increased s-character, making them more electronegative and less likely to participate in radical reactions. Aryl carbons, on the other hand, benefit from delocalized π electrons in a conjugated system, further stabilizing them and reducing their reactivity towards free radicals. Consequently, both types of carbons resist undergoing substitution reactions that would disrupt their stable electronic configurations.
An electronegative atom gain electrons.
Cholesterol all in all have 27 carbons.
butane has four carbons
Sulfur is more electronegative than beryllium.
