Dear student if you are asking about the carbon,then carbon has atomic number 6.So its atomic configuration will be 2,4.As 4e-s are in the valence shell and 4 more e-s are required to complete the octet.Carbon complete its valence shell by shairing of 4 e-s.It neither gains or nor loose the four electrons instead it share the electrons by covalent bonding and achieve the noble gas configuration and become stable.
