Carbon: An Element of Life
<p>Carbon is an element of life. We, humans, use carbon so much that we can’t think of living without carbon and its compounds.</p>
<p>Carbon is an element formed in stars during a process called “Nucleosynthesis”. This is the process by which smaller nuclei fuse together to form larger nuclei.</p>
<p>Carbon is an element of extreme importance in today’s world not just in the fuel sector but also in the pharmaceutical industry as well in factories and large industries.</p>
<p>Carbon is an element of the periodic table that has an atomic number of 6 and a mass number is 12.011u it has 6 electrons of which 4 are its valence electrons. It has a valency of 4. That is why it forms large compounds that are necessary for life and this property of carbon is known as “catenation”.</p>
