Answer:
(iv) (A) is false, but (R) is true.
Explanation:
It is not true that carbon has a strong tendency to either lose or gain electrons to attain noble gas configuration. Carbon is a member of group 14, it is the first member of the group and carbon is purely a non metal. Only metals metals can loose electrons to attain the noble gas configuration. Moreover, carbon does not participate in ionic bonding so it does not gain electrons to attain the noble gas configuration.
However, carbon participates in covalent bonding where it is covalently bonded to four other chemical species using its four outermost electrons. Carbon forms covalent bonds in which four electrons are shared with other chemical species.

Propionic acid is a colorless liquid with a sharp rancid odor. Produces irritating vapor. (USCG, 1999)
Metals consist of giant structure of atoms arranged in a regular pattern. The electrons in the outer shell of metal atoms are shared , and are free to move throughout the structure. Therefore the structure is formed by positive charged metal ions held together by a 'sea' of delocalised.
