carbon is the building block of life. carbon-14 is the most common substance on the Periodic Table due to the fact that most matter can be reduced into it or comes from it. Example: Diamonds are just carbon-14 with extreme heat and pressure applied.

∙ 11y agoCarbon has a property called catenation. This means it can link to other carbon atoms forming longer chains and structures by forming covalent bonds with the other carbon atoms. This is the reason for the presence of the vast number of organic compounds in nature. Carbon is most well known for its properties of catenation, with organic chemistry essentially being the study of catenated carbon structures.
