Compound that contains a double or a triple covalent bond?

An example of a compound with a double covalent bond is ethene (C2H4), while an example of a compound with a triple covalent bond is nitrogen gas (N2). Double bonds involve the sharing of two pairs of electrons between atoms, while triple bonds involve the sharing of three pairs of electrons.


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.


Is a covalent bond a double bond?

You misunderstand. A covalent Bond can be a Single covalent bond, A Double Covalent Bond or a Triple Covalent Bond. In each case the electrons are shared , NOT ionised. As an analogy, its a bit like 'linking arms'. The linked arm(electron) remains attached to the parent body(atom), but is linked/interlocked with an arm(electron) attached to the next parent body(atom). Examples Single Covalent bond ; Ethane H3C-CH3 Double Covalent bond ; Ethene H2C=CH2 Triple Covalent bond ; Ethyne HC=CH


What type of bond will N2 have?

Nitrogen is a non-metal and when non-metals bond with each other, they from covalent bonds. Covalent bonds are bonds where electrons are shared. not only is Nitrogen a covalent bond, but it forms a triple bond due to the valence electrons attraction.


Valence electrons can come together to form what kind of covalent bonds between atoms?

Valence electrons can come together to form single, double, or triple covalent bonds between atoms.

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".


The sharing of electrons is referred to as?

Sharing two pairs makes a double bond. Sharing three pairs makes a triple bond.


What three types of covalent bonds does carbon form?

Carbon can form single covalent bonds, double covalent bonds, and triple covalent bonds. In a single covalent bond, carbon shares one pair of electrons with another atom. In a double covalent bond, carbon shares two pairs of electrons, and in a triple covalent bond, carbon shares three pairs of electrons.


Which covalent bond is the strongest single double or triple?

The triple covalent bond is the strongest, as it involves sharing three pairs of electrons between two atoms. This results in a greater bond strength compared to a double or single covalent bond, which share two and one pairs of electrons, respectively.


What are the double and triple bonded hydrocarbons called?

double bonded hydrocarbons are called "alkenes" and triple bonded hydrocarbons are called "alkynes"
