C : : O : : Since there are still 2 unpaired electrons (both on the carbon), another bond can form, so the oxygen will use one of its unshared pairs to (1) form a 3rd bond and (2) pair up with the last unpaired electron of carbon: : C : : : O :

How long does it take cigarettes to be undetected in a carbon monoxide breathalyzer?

Cigarettes can elevate carbon monoxide (CO) levels in the body, and these elevated levels typically return to baseline within 12 to 24 hours after smoking. However, the exact time can vary based on factors such as the individual's metabolism, frequency of smoking, and overall health. Generally, a breathalyzer may not detect significant CO levels if more than 24 hours have passed since the last cigarette.
