Answer

4

Reason — Given the formula C2H4 :

C2H4=C22  H4C34  H2\text{C}2\text{H}4 = \underset{\phantom{2}{2}}{\text{C}} \space {\nearrow}\mathllap{\nwarrow} \space \underset{4}{\text{H}} \Rightarrow \overset{\phantom{3}{4}}{\text{C}} \space {\nearrow}\mathllap{\nwarrow} \space \overset{2}{\text{H}} \\[0.5em]

∴ Valency of Carbon is 4.
