Oxygen atoms does become more stable when forming compounds as either ionic or covalent compounds are formed, leading to a full valence shell. a full valence shell is obtain due to giving (ionic) or sharing (covalent) of the electrons

How many σ and π bonds are present in a molecule of cumulene?
dimaraw [331]

A hydrocarbon with three or more consecutive (cumulative) double bonds is known as a cumulene. They are analogous to allenes, only exhibiting a more elongated chain. The basic molecule in this category is butatriene, which is also simply known as cumulene.  

In the structure of a cumulene, there are 3 double bonds and 4 single bonds. The double bond comprises 1 sigma bond, and 1 pi bond and 4 hydrogen bond produces a sigma bond with carbon. Thus, the molecule of cumulene comprises 7 sigma bonds and 3 pi bonds.

finlep [7]

Answer:

Luiquid

Explanation:

The atoms in a liquid state of matter have a definite volume, eventhough they acquire the shape of the container that contains them, the volume will always be the same, while in a solid the shape and volume will remain constant, on the other hand for a gas, the substance will fill the container where it is, having different volumes.
