What element has atoms that can form single double and triple covalent bonds with other atoms of carbon?

Nitrogen can form single, double, and triple bonds with carbon. The triple bond form is called cyanide.


What kinds of bonds can carbon atoms form?

A double carbon bond is a covalent bond. Also carbon atoms can form double bonds. Carbon shares electrons with other atoms.


What are Carbon bonds are called?

Carbon bonds are typically referred to as covalent bonds, in which carbon atoms share electrons with other atoms, like hydrogen, oxygen, etc. Carbon can also form double bonds and triple bonds with other atoms, depending on the number of electrons shared.


Can carbon atoms only form a single bond between other carbon atoms?

no, single, double, and triple are allowed. That is what makes organic chemistry so flexible.


What are straight chain or branch chain hydrocarbons called in which all the bonds between carbon atoms are single covalent bonds?

With no double or triple bonds, they are called "saturated".


How many double bonds or anything below his structure for carbon dioxide?

The carbon dioxide has two double bonds each with its oxygen atoms. The structure would be O=C=O and is a linear molecule.


How many hydrogen atoms are in an unbranched alkene with one double bond and 5 carbon atoms?

There are 8 hydrogen atoms in an unbranched alkene with one double bond and 5 carbon atoms. Each carbon atom forms 4 bonds, with one of those bonds being a double bond. So, each carbon atom in the alkene needs 3 hydrogen atoms to complete its remaining bonds.


Is carbon dioxide single or double bonds?

Carbon dioxide has two double bonds between the carbon atom and the oxygen atoms.


Can carbon only form single bonds?

No. Benzene (C6H6) is a base for very many carbocyclic compounds. It contains six carbon atoms in a hexagon. The bonds between the carbon atoms are alternately single and double. The fourth is with the hydrogen. Acetylen (C2H2) jas a triple carbon-to-carbon bond.


What are carbons that have carbon-carbon double bonds called?

Carbons with carbon-carbon double bonds are called alkenes. They are unsaturated hydrocarbons characterized by the presence of at least one carbon-carbon double bond.


Why can carbon form such strong bonds between atoms?

Because carbon has a double bond gving it double the strength


Are those double bonds of carbon and chlorine?

No, carbon-carbon double bonds are different from carbon-chlorine bonds. Carbon-carbon double bonds involve two carbon atoms sharing two pairs of electrons, while carbon-chlorine bonds involve a carbon atom covalently bonded to a chlorine atom by sharing one pair of electrons.
