No,they are no single bonds.There is a double bond.

The single bond length between oxygen and phosphorus is 176 picometers but I am unsure of the double bond length.


What is NO2 bond type?

NO2 has a resonance structure, in which the nitrogen atom forms a double bond with one oxygen atom and a single bond with the other oxygen atom. This results in a bond type that is an average of a single and a half bond, making it a "one and a half" bond type.

This compound makes a double covalent bond between nitrogen and oxygen.


What chemical bond is responsible for holding a single water molecule together?

the hydrogen - oxygen bond.


Is water a single or double bond?

Water is a molecule with a single bond between the oxygen and each hydrogen atom. Each hydrogen atom shares one electron with the oxygen atom through a covalent bond.


Why do oxygen and ozone have different colours ie what chemical properties cause this?

A single vs. a double oxygen bond. Oxygen only has a double oxygen bond. Ozone has one of each.


How does the bond length between the oxygen atoms in an ozone molecule compare to the bond lengths of oxygen-oxygen single and double bonds Explain?

The bond in O2 is a double bond, meaning two pairs of electrons are shared between two atoms. Double bonds are shorter than single bonds because of the second electron pairs presence over the single bond. This pulls the atoms closer together.

What are the resonance structures of CH4S?

I believe there are 3 stuctures. The molecule can only resonate through 3 of its Oxygens while the last one holds the hydrogen. So you have S in the middle 4 Oxygens around it. 1. Oxygen 1 has the hydrogen and has a single bond to the S. Oxygen 2 has a double bond to the S, Oxygen 3 has a single bond to the S (and a negative charge), and Oxygen 4 has a double bond to the S. 2. Same as before but this time Oxygen 3 has the double bond and Oxygen 2 has the single bond and the extra lone pair (negative charge) 3. Same thing except Oxygen 4 now has the single bond and negative charge and Oxygen 2 has the a double bond. The Oxygen with the hydrogen attached should always be single bonded as well as one other Oxygen. The other 2 oxygens are double bonded. I hope that makes sense, it's hard to explain when you can't draw it.


What type of bond is in ClO?

The bond in ClO is a covalent bond. In ClO, chlorine and oxygen share a pair of electrons to form a single covalent bond.


How many equivalent Lewis structures are necessary to describe the bonding in NO2?

Two equivalent Lewis structures are necessary to describe the bonding in NO2, as it exhibits resonance. In one structure, nitrogen has a double bond with one oxygen and a single bond with another oxygen, while in the other structure, nitrogen has a double bond with the other oxygen and a single bond with the first oxygen.


How many atoms can hydrogen bond with oxygen?

A total of two hydrogen atoms can bond to a single oxygen atom.
