((Image of several letters H "bonded" labeled crystalline hydrogen)) ((Capital letter C with circles on each end of the letter)) Carbon can only form two bonds. It readily bonds with hydrogen to form C₂H (mydrane) or itself. ((Image of two letters C linked labeled C₂)) ((Image of two letters C linked with a letter H between them labeled C₂H)) ((Capital letter O)) Oxygen is inert, forming no bonds... ((Image of several letters O labeled monatomic oxygen gas)) Typographic chemistry
