No methane does not contain a triple bond.
Methane is a covalent compound: in one molecule of methane, there are four hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to one hydrogen atom each by a single covalent bond (i.e., one single bond between each hydrogen atom and the carbon atom).

Carbon can react to how many atoms at one time?
It depends on the atoms it is reacting with. If carbon it is 4 eg CH4 is methane, if oxygen it is two eg CO2 is carbon dioxide. This is because carbon can form four bonds, and carbon-carbon bonds are single bonds and carbon-oxygen bonds are double bonds.
Can nitrogen form single and double bonds?
Yes it can for single, double and even triple bond
Valence electrons in covalent bonds?
Covalent bonds are formed by sharing electrons of the valence shell.
How many bonds does SO2 have?
There are two double bonds.So there are two pi bonds.
What properties of carbon help carbon to form complex structures?
Carbon can form complex molecules because of its ability to form many bonds. Carbon in a neutral species has four single bonds, two double bonds, one triple and one single bond, or one double and two single bonds. Due to this extensive boding, carbon can form large molecules and even chains tens of thousands of atoms long (polymers).
What do you call a hydrocarbon with single bonds?
There is no hydrocarbon with a single bond. The simplest hydrocarbon, methane: CH4, has four single bonds.
What bond is formed in methane?
Methane is a molecule with covalent bonds. Then again, there are different types of bonds. To be specific, Methane is a tetrahedral molecule with covalent long single bonds.
How many bond can a single carbon make?
A single carbon can make four bonds but they may not all be single i.e it could make 4 single bonds (as in methane) or 2 double bonds (as in cardon dioxide) or one triple bond and a single bond (as in Ethyne).
What is a characteristic of a aromatic hydrocarbons?
Alternating single and double bonds
What are some examples of covalent bond?
Single, double, and triple carbon-carbon bonds; carbon-hydrogen bonds; carbon-halogen bonds; hydrogen-hydrogen bonds; nitrogen-nitrogen bonds; single and double carbon-oxygen bonds; silicon-oxygen bonds; nitrogen-oxygen bonds; etc.
How many covalent bonds are found in methane?
there are four covalent bonds between carbon and hydrogen in methane (CH4).
Do diamonds have single or double bonds?
single bonds
Do organic bonds have single or double bonds?
There are no certain bond type.There are single,double or triple bonds.
How many covalent bonds does CH4?
There are four bonds.All are covalent bonds.
Does NH3 have single bonds or double bonds?
There are single bonds.There are three bonds.
Does glucose have single or double bonds?
it has all single bonds
What are the bond combinations for carbon in neutral molecules?
four single bonds two double bonds two single bonds and one double bond one triple bond and one single bond
