What is the largest number of atoms a carbon atom can bond to all single bonds?
Four.
What type of bonds do alkanes contain?
single only- apex
What is the total number of single bonds in a molecule of pentane?
This is easy to figure out, and it doesn't even matter what isomer of pentane we're talking about: There are five carbons. Each carbon can form four single bonds. Therefore, there must be a total of 5x4 = 20 single bonds, no matter how we arrange the carbon skeleton. Some of those (specifically, four) will be carbon-carbon bonds, and the remainder (sixteen) will be carbon-hydrogen bonds.
How many bonds can a single carbon have?
Carbon may have 4 bonds :)
How many single bonds can extend from one carbon atom?
four single bonds
What is the largest number of atoms a carbon atom can bond to all single bonds?
Four.
What type of bonds do alkanes contain?
single only- apex
What are the number of single bonds that can be formed by a carbon atom?
Carbon bonds with 4 bonds, shown by the need of four electrons to complete it's outer shell
What is the number of bonds normally associated with a single carbon atom in a compounds?
Four
What are examples of covalent bonds besides water?
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 in silicone polymers.

What kind of fatty acid has only single bonds?
In saturated fatty acids are there only single bonds in the carbon chain.
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 is the maximum number of single covalent bonds a carbon atom can form with other elements?
Four if you consider something like methane CH4. If carbon were to bond with another carbon atom it could form up to 3 bonds (an alkyne).
How many bonds can a single carbon have?
Carbon may have 4 bonds :)
How many single covalent bonds can a carbon atom form?
A carbon atom can form 4 single covalent bonds
How many bonds does carbon usually form?
Carbon usually forms four single bonds in its compounds. Of course, if multiple bonds are present, then the number is different. In the case of multiple bonds, carbon forms two double bonds or a triple bond and one single bond.
