Answer: 7σ +3π

Explanation:

Cumulene has its formular to be C4H4. Structurally it is composed of 4 carbon to Hydrogen single bonds and 3 double bonds.

It is worthy of note that in the field of chemistry:

A double bond is made up of 1σ bond and 1π bond.

A single bond is made up of 1σ bond.

Therefore the structure of Cumulene contains:

4 single bonds = 4σ

3 double bonds = 3 (σ + π )

4σ + 3σ +3π = 7σ +3π

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.

A - ion (negative ion, one with extra negative charge)?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

That means an atom with a neutral charge is one where the number of electrons is equal to the atomic number. Ions are atoms with extra electrons or missing electrons. When you are missing an electron or two, you have a positive charge. When you have an extra electron or two, you have a negative charge.

Conociendo el volumen de la solución y la masa del soluto y su masa molar, ¿qué concentración es posible determinar
NISA [10]

Answer:

Conociendo el volumen de solución, masa de soluto y su masa molar, es posible determinar: B) Concentración molar

La molaridad es la relación entre el número de moles de soluto y los litros de solución. Más:

M = No moles de solución de soluto / volumen (L)

Y a su vez los moles de soluto se encuentran por:

No moles de soluto = masa soluto / masa molar soluto

What does the nucleus of an atom do to its own electrons? To the electrons of a nearby atom?
Margaret [11]
An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.

An atom is made up of energy levels that contain electrons which are negatively charged and the nucleus which contains neutrons and protons that are negatively charge .

Due the positive charge of the nucleus of an atom, an atom always want to attract its electrons and keep them near it however it weakly attracts the other electrons of a nearby atom.
