What is the general rule for predicting the oxidation number of the carbon family?

The general rule for predicting the oxidation numbers of the carbon family (Group 14 elements) is that carbon typically exhibits oxidation numbers of -4, +4, and occasionally +2. In compounds, carbon usually adopts a -4 oxidation state when bonded to more electronegative elements, such as in methane (CH₄). It can also have a +4 oxidation state in compounds like carbon dioxide (CO₂) when bonded to oxygen. The oxidation state can vary based on the specific bonding environment and the elements involved.
