The characteristic which is not true of carbon is: B. It is a relatively small atom.

Carbon can be defined as a non-metallic and tetravalent chemical element represented with the chemical symbol C and it has an atomic number (number of protons) of six (6). This ultimately implies that, carbon is found in Group 6 of the periodic table because of its six (6) valence electrons, that are found in the outermost shell of its atomic nucleus.

Some of the characteristics of carbon include the following:

  • It has the ability to form a covalent bond with multiple other atoms at once.
