Answer:
To form a wide range of compounds with other elements
Explanation:
The ability of carbon to gain four more electrons allows this chemical specie to form a wide range of compounds.
When carbon gains four electrons, it becomes isoelectronic with neon and then becomes a stable compound or molecule as it combines with other atoms.
This leads to the proliferation of carbon compounds that we find in nature. Carbon can easily for covalent compounds with other compounds also.
Dear Owner of Question
The exotic pet epidemic in the United States is overwhelming. There have been hundreds of tragic and often fatal incidents between owners and their exotic pets. Whether these animals reside in homes or in backyard menageries, the dream of owning a wild animal and raising it is short lived for many. No matter how hard a person tries to replicate a wild animal’s natural environment, they will always fall short. Owners realize fairly quickly that the animal they’ve purchased (usually through the illegal wildlife trade) isn’t manageable. Sadly, this often leads people to abandon, release, euthanize or – in the best case scenario – surrender their exotic animals to sanctuaries.
For some, releasing their pets into the wild seems the most “viable” option. Although some owners who take this course may have good intentions, releasing exotic animals into the wild is cruel, not to mention illegal. Having been raised by humans, these animals have little to no survival skills and succumb to the harsh elements that are foreign to them. They often wind up dying from exhaustion and starvation while others get hit by vehicles or killed by predators.
Sincerely, Jacob Torreyson
