    Carbon is denoted by the symbol C, is part of group 14 on the periodic table, and is the fourth most abundant element in the universe (by mass). Carbon has an electron configuration of 1s2, 2s2, 2p2. With 4 valance shell electrons it is expected to form 4 bonds, this means carbon is tetravalent. However the s orbitals do not form the same type of bond (with other atoms) as the p orbitals, this is because their shapes are different. For example CH4 would have the following bonds: C(s)-H(s), C(s)-H(s), C(p)-H(s), C(p)-H(s). This would also mean that CH4 would have a mixture of π bonds and σ bonds. However in reality this is not the case, all the bonds of CH4 are identical. This is due to hybridization, this is where the 2s orbital and the three 2p orbitals hybridize to form sp3, a hybrid orbital. sp3 hybrid orbitals have a tetrahedral shape because each orbital positions itself at angles of 109.5° (around CH4) maximising the distance between the…
