Why is alkane chemically inert?

Alkanes are not very reactive because of the stability of their bonds. The carbon hydrogen bonds found in alkanes are virtually nonpolar. Also, carbon and hydrogen have no lone pairs of electrons. This means that they are not subject to attack by nucleophiles or electrophiles.


Hydrocarbons which have only single bonds between carbon atoms?

All alkanes have single bonds.They consist of single bonds.


How many sigma bonds in propene?

there are 6 sigma bonds in a benzene ring Correction: There are 6 sigma carbon-carbon bonds...but there are also 6 carbon-hydrogen sigma bonds. Thus there are twelve sigma bonds in a benzene ring.

Are sigma bonds more electrophilic than pi bonds?

Sigma and pi bonds are nucleophiles. Pi bonds are more nucleophilic than sigma. Electrphilic is not a term usually associated with either sigma or pi bonds.


How many sigma bonds are in the nitrate ion?

3 sigma bonds!


How many sigma bonds does CH3 have?

There are 5 sigma bonds and 1 pi bond in C2H3Cl.


What sigma bonds does NH3 contain?

I am guessing you mean how many. NH3 contains 3 sigma bonds. There is no other type of sigma bonds.


How many sigma bonds are there in vitamin C?

Well sigma bonds are a single bond basically, and pi-bonds are double. In a nutshell if you count them there are 16 total bonds. In a pi-bond you have sigma bonds as well so for sigma there are 16. For pi bonds there are 2!
