explain with examples single, double and triple covalent bond
Answers
.Answer:
single bond
When two atoms share one electron pair between each other, then they are said to be bonded by single covalent bond, denoted by single dash joining the atoms. For the formation of this bond, presence of an atom with single valency is required. The atoms with single valencies are halogens and hydrogen.
e.g. – Cl2, HCl, NH3 etc.
double bond
When two atoms share two electron pair between each other, they are said to be bonded by double covalent bond, denoted by double dash joining the atoms. The atoms with double valency are the oxygen family.
E.g.:- O2, CO2 etc.
triple bond
When two atoms share three electron pair between each other, they are said to be bonded by triple covalent bond. Triple bond is denoted by three dash joining the atoms. The atoms with triple valency are the nitrogen family.
E.g.: N2 , C2H2 etc.
