The atomic number of carbon (C) is 6. The atomic weight of C is 12.011 grams per mole. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the element. Carbon has 6 protons and therefore has an atomic number of 6 (See the Related Links below this answer for a periodic table with more information about this element)
What is a Carbon Dioxide Molecule? Oxygen and carbon are both non-metals. An oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell. Oxygen is in group 6 of the periodic table. A carbon atom has 4 electrons in its outer shell. Carbon is in group 4 of the periodic table. Two oxygen atoms and 1 carbon atom will each share two electrons to form four covalent bonds and make a carbon dioxide molecule (CO 2). This is a picture of a carbon dioxide molecule. By sharing the four electrons where the shells touch each oxygen and carbon atom can count 8 electrons in its outer shell. These full outer shells with their shared electrons are now stable, and the CO 2 molecule will not react further with other oxygen or carbon atoms. Each electron pair is one bond.
