The nature of bonds in the compounds of carbon is mostly:a)Electrovale...
The atomic no. of carbon is 6 which means that a nutral atom of carbon contains 6 electrons .so, the electronic confugration of carbon is 2 and 4. Since a corbon atom has 4 electrons in tis outermost cell ,so it should either lose 4 electrons or gain 4 electrons to achieve the inert gas electron configuration and become stable,its not possible to remove 4 electrons from a carbon atom,its not possible to add as many as 4 electrons to a carbon atom,,therefore carbon atoms can achieve the inert gas electron arrangment only by the sharing of electrons,tthere fore ,carbon alwayz forms covalent bonds.

The nature of bonds in the compounds of carbon is mostly covalent because carbon has tetravalency and it don't gain or loss electron so it share the electron and mutual shading is known as covalent

C is the correct answer as carbon has 4 electron in its outermost shell. So it is difficult to loose electrons or gain electrons. That's why carbon forms covalent bond by sharing of electrons.
