In a triple covalent bond there are three electron pairs. Examples are ethyne (acetylene) HCCH where the the triple bond is between the carbon atoms, and N2 where there is triple bond between the nitrogen atoms. A triple bond has sigma bond (electrons along the axis, and two pi bonds electrons around the axis. See link for a picture. Note wikipedia triple bond article INCORRECTLY says triple bonds common in phosphorus, so ignore that bit the rest is OK

What are the 2 types of covalent bonds?

The two types of covalent bonds are polar covalent bonds and nonpolar covalent bonds. Polar covalent bonds occur when the atoms share electrons unequally, leading to a slight charge separation. Nonpolar covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons equally.

Do covalent bonds dissolve in methanol?

Covalent bonds do not "dissolve" in methanol. Covalent bonds are intramolecular bonds formed by sharing of electrons between atoms within a molecule. Methanol can form hydrogen bonds with certain compounds, but it does not dissolve covalent bonds.

What kind of bond are formed by share electrons?

When electrons are shared, covalent bonds are formed. Covalent bonds are of two types, polar and non-polar. A complex type of covalent bonds are co-ordinate covalent bonds or dative bonds.
