Question

Toppr Admin · Accepted Answer

To complete an octet silicon requires 4 more electrons- So- in bonding it shares its electrons as removing 4 electrons from silicon is difficult-Hence- option C is correct-

Silicon has $4$ electrons in the outermost orbit. In forming the bonds___
it gains electrons
it loses electrons
it shares electrons
it donates electron pair

To complete an octet silicon requires $4$ more electrons. So, in bonding it shares its electrons as removing $4$ electrons from silicon is difficult.
Hence, option $C$ is correct.
