Best Answer

There are many elements which have no unpaired electrons in their outer shells.

The Noble gasses all have closed shells of valence electrons.

The alkali earth metals (Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium etc) also have no unpaired electrons, although their outer shell is not entirely full.

An element that has two outer electrons seeks to gain six more?

An element that has two outer electrons is carbon. Carbon would not use the energy to gain six more electrons when it can easily get rid of the two outer electrons.

Why do carbons like to make 4 bonds?

Carbon had 4 valence (outer Shell), unpaired electrons waiting for another element to share one of its valence electrons with it. The simplest case would be cabon bonding to Hydrogen, which has one valence electron. To make a sucessful pair and hence a bond, one unpaired electron from Hydrongen, and one Unpaired electron from Carbon covalently bond to form one PAIR of electrons and hence (and as my grammer shows, repeticiously) a bond.
