  2. Carbon compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_compounds

    Carbon compounds. Carbon compounds are defined as chemical substances containing carbon. [ 1][ 2] More compounds of carbon exist than any other chemical element except for hydrogen. Organic carbon compounds are far more numerous than inorganic carbon compounds. In general bonds of carbon with other elements are covalent bonds.

  3. Carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon

    Carbon (from Latin carbo 'coal') is a chemical element; it has symbol C and atomic number 6. It is nonmetallic and tetravalent —meaning that its atoms are able to form up to four covalent bonds due to its valence shell exhibiting 4 electrons. It belongs to group 14 of the periodic table. [ 16]

    Atomic number color: black=solid. The carbon group is a periodic table group consisting of carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), tin (Sn), lead (Pb), and flerovium (Fl). It lies within the p-block . In modern IUPAC notation, it is called group 14. In the field of semiconductor physics, it is still universally called group IV.
