How many σ bonds are there in each molecule ethane ethylene acetylene?

Chemistry

Murljashka [212]4 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

When there occurs head-on overlapping between the atomic orbitals then the bond formed is known as a sigma bond.

A sigma bond is represented by the symbol "\sigma". A compound with only single bonds between its atoms will have all the bonds as sigma bonds.

A double bond has one sigma and one pi bond. Whereas a triple bond will have one sigma and two pi bonds.

Hence, number of sigma bonds present in the given compounds will be as follows.

  • As the chemical formula of ethane is CH_{3}CH_{3} and it contains only single bonds. Hence, in a molecule of ethane there are 7 sigma bonds.
  • Chemical formula of ethylene is C_{2}H_{4} and it contains one double bond. Hence, total number of sigma bonds present in a molecule of ethylene are 5 and there is one pi bond also.
  • Chemical formula of acetylene is C_{2}H_{2}. There is one triple bond present in it. So, the total number of sigma bonds present in a molecule of acetylene is 3 and there are 2 pi bonds also.

The  sigma  bonds  are  formed  when  orbitals  overlap  side  by  side  and  is  related  to  covalent  bond  In  ethylene  the number  of  sigma   bond  are  5.
Reason,  carbon  has  four  carbon -hydrogen  bond  which  form  four  sigma  bond.  The  other    sigma  bond  is  between  carbon=carbon  bond  thus  ethylene  has  5  sigma  bond

When three pairs of electrons are shared in a molecule, what shape will the molecule be?
djyliett [7]
The correct answer is B. The shape of a molecule where three pairs of electrons are shared is a trigonal planar. This is characterized by one central atom and three atoms forming an equilateral triangle which is bonded to the central atom.

Distinguish between boiling, melting, and sublimation
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Boiling: The process of conversion from liquid to gas on heating is called boiling.

Example: Water on heating turns into water vapour.

Melting: The process of conversion from solid to liquid at room temperature is called melting.

Example: Ice cream melting at room temperature.

Sublimation: The Conversion of solid to gas directly is called sublimation.

Example: Camphor, Dry ice

First, let's explain the variables. F means force, m means mass, and a means acceleration. F is measured in Newotns [N], mass is measured in kilograms [kg], and acceleration in measured in meters per squared second [m/s²].

Now let's mover on the first problem.

Given

m = 1000 kg

a = 3 m/s²

According to the second law of Newton, the force is equal to the acceleration multiplied by the mass.

F = am\\F = 3 * 1000\\F = 3000 N

The answer is 3000 N.

The second problem is smiliar.

Given

m = 70 kg

F = 250 N

We use the same formula from before, and use a bit of algebra to adapat it to our needs.

F = ma\\\frac{F}{m} = a\\a = \frac{F}{m}\\a = \frac{250}{70} \\a = 24\frac{1}{7} m/s^{2}

The answer is 24 1/7 s/m^2.
