no ans and confussion
Alkanes are hydrocarbons that have only single bonds between carbon atoms. They are saturated hydrocarbons with the general formula CnH2n+2, where n represents the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. Alkanes are relatively inert and have straight or branched chain structures.
single only- apex
Alkanes have single bonds between their carbon atoms due to the nature of carbon's bonding capabilities. Each carbon atom forms four covalent bonds by sharing electrons, and in alkanes, they are all single bonds (sigma bonds) formed by the overlap of atomic orbitals. This allows alkanes to achieve a saturated state, meaning they have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms bonded to their carbon skeleton, which is characteristic of this class of hydrocarbons. The single bonds also contribute to the relative stability and lower reactivity of alkanes compared to alkenes and alkynes, which have double and triple bonds, respectively.
39 sigma and 6 pi bonds
I am guessing you mean how many. NH3 contains 3 sigma bonds. There is no other type of sigma bonds.
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.

there are 97 sigma bonds and 11 pi bonds
No, alkanes do not have double bonds. Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that only contain single bonds between carbon atoms.
26 sigma bonds
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.
26
39 sigma and 6 pi bonds
A molecule of butane contains a total of 10 sigma bonds.
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!
