Carbon only has 4 valence electrons and so it can make all kinds of bonds. Carbon is a very important element on the planet if not the most important.

What is the valance of electrons in carbon?

The atomic number of carbon is 6. 6 protons, 6 electrons. Two in the first shell and 4 on the second shell leaving 4 spaces open, making the second shell the valence shell and the 4 spaces open the valence- valence is the bonding capacity, in other words the electrons needed to fill the second shell. First shell max is 2 electrons Seccond shell max is 8 electrons
