What is the difference between saturated and unsaturated bonds?

If a compound is saturated, this means that every bonding site is occupied by an element or an electron pair, and the compound doesn't want any more bonds. For example, saturated fats are hard to break down because there are no bonding sites. If a compound is unsaturated, this means it can still make bonds because open bonding sites are readily available. For an individual bond to be saturated, it can only be a SINGLE bond. Double, or triple bonds are not considered saturated.


Does a pi bond consist of two pairs of electrons?

Pi bonds are contained in double and triple bonds. In a double bond, there is 1 pi bond (and 1 sigma bond for all intents and purposes). In a triple bond, there are 2 pi bonds (and 1 sigma bond).


How many covalent bonds does CH4?

There are four bonds.All are covalent bonds.


What are saturated Hydrocarbons?

Saturated hydrocarbons have every possible bonding site on the carbon backbone that could bond to a hydrogen bonded to a hydrogen. All carbon-carbon bonds are single. These hydrocarbons are rigid and have high melting temperatures. Lard, Crisco, Butter, and Margarine are saturated.Unsaturated hydrocarbons don't and therefor contain one or more double or triple carbon-carbon bond(s). These hydrocarbons are "floppy" and have lower melting temperatures. Cooking and Salad oils are unsaturated.


What is saturated polymer?

The term saturated means or referred to a compound in which all carbons are bonds in a single bonds and every one of the carbon atoms are bonded to a different atoms.

In baseball what does hitting the cycle mean?

Hitting for the cycle refers to when one player aquires every type of hit in one game - that being a single, double, triple, and a home run.


How many pi bonds are present in acetylsalicylic acid?

Every double bond has one pi bond and one sigma bond. There are five double bonds in acetylsalicylic acid, so there are five pi bonds.

Which substance has four covalent bonds?

Yes, there are lots of substances wich have four C=C double bonds. E.g. there is cycloocta-1,3,5,7-tetraen (C8H8) which is a ring of 8 carbon atoms and 4 double bonds distributed equally in the ring. If you consider the bonds in benzene containing 3 double bonds (some might disagree) then vinyl benzene is another compound with four double bonds. The IUPAC nomenclature meaning "4 double bonds" is "tetraen" (although not every compound with four double bonds necessarily has the fragment "tetraen" in its name. In case the question was "is there a substance where /one carbon atom/ has four different double bonds?" the answer is: No, at least I haven't seen one, and if there were, it would probably have extremely short lifespan and decompose to something less crowded.


Can you double up no bake chocolate peanut butter recipe?

Yes. Double every single ingredient. You will get twice as many.


How many carbon atoms are there in the molecule hexane?

There are no double bonds in benzene. In a benzene molecule, every carbon is attached to another two carbon atoms and to a hydrogen atom. Then there is a free p-orbital to every carbon atom. All of these over lap to form delocalized orbitals. It is experimentally proved that C-C bond distance in benzene are all the same and liebetween the actual lengths of a C-C bond and a C=C bond. In the valence bond description of bonding there is resonance between two principal forms, each has 3 double bonds. The net effect of the resonance is very similar to the molecular orbital approach above.
