The Carbon family likes to combine with many of the 92 atoms in Nature and with his many twins (tuples). Tom-the-Atom explains how tiny atoms form large objects. They do so by using only the electrons of their outermost shell. Those electrons and only those are called valence electrons, and by handshaking with other atoms, they form covalent bonds. Carbon atoms form a hard, shiny diamond with four handshakes to soft, opaque graphite with three handshakes!
