What is the geometry and bond angle around a carbon atom which has one triple bond and one single bond to its neighboring atoms?
Frankiewoody96
Such a carbon atom forms linear or digonal structure because it is 'sp' hybridized.

What is the shape of the molecule HCN?
Hydrogen cyanide is a hydrogen bonded to a complex ion, cyanide (CN-). The hydrogen is single bonded to the cyanide ion, which is a carbon triple bonded to a nitrogen atom. See the link below for a good representation of this molecule.
What type of bond is found in an alkyne?
Single and triple
How many single covalent bonds can a carbon atom form?
A carbon atom can form 4 single covalent bonds
Is ethene gas a single bond?
No, ethylene (ethene) has a carbon-carbon double bond, in addition to four other single bonds between carbon and hydrogen.
Why doesn't carbon exist as a single molecule?
Carbon exists both as atomic carbon (a single carbon atom) and as carbon molecules (Fullerenes) The atomic carbon is a very short lived species. The Fullerenes (like Buckey Balls) are very stable.
Molecular geometry of CO3 2?
The molecular geometry of the compound CO32- is trigonal planar. It has a single atom of carbon bound to three atoms of oxygen.
What is the molecular geometry if you have 3 single bonds and 1 lone pair around the central atom?
Trigonal Pyramidal
What is a single carbon-carbon bond?
What is a single carbon-carbon bond
What is font geometry?
Font geometry are angles, spans and lenghts in which single letters of the font are designed.
What is a two dimensional object in geometry?
Two dimensional geometry is called "plane geometry" meaning that it occurs on a single surface or plane. The objects used in plane geometry are called plane figures.
What causes an unsaturated fatty acids to have a different shape than a saturated fatty acid?
A saturated fatty acid chain is composed of a carbon chain with only single covalent bonds. This creates a tetrahedral geometry of the atoms. An unsaturated fatty acid chain is composed of a carbon chain with one or more double covalent bonds. This creates a trigonal geometry of the atoms at the double covalent bond.
Exaples of a substance with tetrahedral geometry?
There are many compounds that exhibit tetrahedral structure. Some of those compounds are carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), chloroform (CHCl3), and methane (CH4). Many compounds of carbon (those which don't contain double bonds) are tetrahedral in structure because carbon tends to form four single bonds.
How many hydrogen atoms can bond to a single cardon atom?
Carbon can have maximum of 4 single bonds around it, thus 4 hydrogen atoms.
What is the molecular geometry of NO2?
The molecular geometry of NO2 is linear. N(triple bond)N(single bond)O
What is the electron geometry of OF2?
Electron geometry for this is tetrahedral. There are two O-F single bonds, which makes 2 electron groups. There are two lone pairs around oxygen, which make up the last two electron groups. Molecules with four electron groups has a tetrahedral Electron geometry.
Does ethylene have a single bond and double bond?
Ethylene has 4 single bonds (carbon to hydrogen) and 1 double bond (carbon to carbon).
What is the molecular geometry for CH3I?
Since there is 4 electron domains which are all single bonds without any lone pairs, the molecular geometry is tetrahedral.
