Because the eigenfunction of the collapsed wave function that results from inserting the Hamiltonian of C2's composite orbital's degrees of freedom into Schrodinger's equation yielded a lower eigenstate for that situation than if you did the similar thing to an unbounded carbon atom.
Woof! I couldn't have said it better myself. How refreshing!
I can just hear Mortimer Snerd squeezing out a yowl.
That was beautiful!

How many electrons will one carbon atom share?
One carbon atom will share four electrons.
How many electrons does carbon atoms share?
This question seems a bit unclear. Perhaps it meant something like: "how many electrons can be shared with carbon atoms?" Anyway, a carbon atom can share 4 electrons with other atoms, including other carbon atoms.
Why a carbon do not share electrons with a other carbon?
The initial statement in this question is false, carbon atoms do share electrons with other carbon atoms. An example of when they do share electrons can be found in diamond, where the carbon atoms form a tetrahedral shape to form one of the strongest naturally occurring substances..
How many valence electrons can carbon share?
4
Why carbon forms a covalent bond?
carbon has 4 electrons in valence shell. In order to form ionic compound, carbon should either gain four electrons or lose four electrons; both of which required high energy and is not easy. so carbon will share its electrons by forming covalent bond and gain stability.
How many electrons will one carbon atom share?
One carbon atom will share four electrons.
How many other pairs of atoms can carbon share its electrons with?
a carbon atom can share electrons with up to four other atoms.

If oxygen is nearby what would carbon do in terms of electrons?
Carbon would share electrons with the oxygen to form carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide.
How many electrons can carbon share at once?
96
How many valence electrons can carbon share?

How many valence electrons can a carbon atom share?
4
How many electrons does carbon share to complete its valence shell?
Carbon has 4 valence electrons. It needs four more to form the octet. So carbon will share four electrons
What Type of bonding all carbon compounds have?
mostly all carbon compounds have covalent bonding since carbon can't donate it's valence shell electrons it can share those electrons
How many electrons do carbon atoms always share?
They have 4. They "want" to share 8, but they don't always get to do so. Carbon monoxide is the best example of incomplete combustion.
