It has single covalent bonds between the carbon and hydrogens. These are C-H sigma bonds. They form by constructive overlap of the 1s orbitals on the hydrogens and sp3 hybrid orbitals on the carbon.

∙ 13y agoMethane is formed by the sharing of electrons between Hydrogen atoms and Carbon. Methane is formed by non-polar covalent bonding. It does not produce any dipole, so it's non-polar.

What is the chemical formula for methane molecule?
Molecular formula: CH4 Structural formula: . H H C H . H CH4 (1 carbon and 4 hydrogen) it is NOT ch4 it is CH4; 4 being a subscript indicating 4 hydrogen atoms bonded into a single carbon atom
What type of chemical bond is carbon and hydrogen?
Carbon and Hydrogen bonds together with covalent bonds, as in CH4.
Is CH4 hydrogen bonding?
Hydrogen bonding usually occurs between molecules that have a hydrogen atom bonded to either Fluorine, Oxygen or Nitrogen. So technically CH4 cannot hydrogen bond (certainly not between it's own molecules). However a recent A-Level exam paper had a multiple choice question which said that CH4 molecules CAN hydrogen bond with itself.
What type of bond is H2?
Hydrogen Bond
What is h2o2 bond type?
Covalent bond
What type of chemical bond does CH4 have?
Methane has covalent bonds.
What type of bonding occurs in CH4?
there will be four C-H sigma bond (single covalent bond)
Is CH4 a convalent or ionic bond?
CH4 represents a molecule, not a bond at all. The bonds within this molecule are covalent.
Is CH4 a covelant or ionic Bond?
CH4 is a covalent compound.It is non polar
What is the bond angle in CH4?
Bond angle is 109.5 degrees.It is equal in every bond
Ch4 have single or double bond?
CH4 has only single bonds.There are no double bonds.
Does CH4 contain a hydrogen bond?
yes it does
What is the bond line formula for methane?
CH4
What is an example of a single bond?
Methane CH4
Is CH4 non polar covalent bond?
yes CH4 is non polar covalent compound.
What is the angle of CH4?
The CH4 Bond Angle Will Be 109.5 Degrees Because It Has a Tetrahedral Molecular Geometry.
What is the bond associated with CH4?
CH4 ia not polar.So the intra molecular force is london force
