Advertisements
उत्तर
- Carbon has a unique ability to form strong covalent bonds with other carbon atoms; this results in the formation of big molecules. This property of carbon is called catenation power.
- Due to the catenation power of carbon, the compounds formed may have long straight chains of carbon, branched chains of carbon or rings of carbon.
