MCQ
Which element froms maximum compound in chemistry?
  • A
    $O$
  • B
    $H$
  • C
    $Si$
  • ✓
    $C$
✓

Answer

Correct option: D.
$C$
Carbon is the element which forms the highest number of compounds especially organic compounds due to its catenation $($long chain formation$)$ ability. Carbon, with $4$ valence atoms and by virtue of being small in size is most suited to form the highest number of compounds.
