Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that is slightly less dense than air. ... Carbon monoxide consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom, connected by a triple bond that consists of two covalent bonds as well as one dative covalent bond.
I think it's probably not right.
Answer:
One triple bond and four non bonding electrons
Explanation:
In considering the lewis structure of carbon monoxide, we must remember that the molecule contains a total of ten valence electrons. Four are the valence electrons that are present on the valence shell of carbon while six are the valence electrons on oxygen. Some of these valence electrons participate in bonding in the CO molecule.
Out of the six valence electrons on oxygen, two valence electrons participate in bonding with carbon while the other four electrons remain localized on the oxygen atom as two lone pairs of electrons.
Hence there are four nonbonding electrons in the lewis structure of CO as well as one triple bond.
The answer is B Nitrogen atoms will form three covalent bonds (also called triple covalent) between two atoms of nitrogen because each nitrogen atom needs three electrons to fill its outermost shell. Another example of a nonpolar covalent bond is found in the methane (CH4) molecule.
if da ceiling in a square that means it has four sides. If each side is 39 feet and there are four sides you would multiply 39 times 4 which equals 156. If one can of paint can cover 169 ft.² and the ceiling is only 156 ft.² then you would only need 1 CAN OF PAINT.
