Question

If x is the number of sigma and y is the number pi bonds in a. Molecule of cyanogen x+y equals

Answer 1

Answer:

Cyanogen, N≡C−C≡N has three sigma and four 'pi' bonds.

Answer 2

Cyanogen, N≡C−C≡N has three sigma and four 'pi' bonds and the Molecule of cyanogen will have x+y equal to 7.

Explanation:

• Cyanogen is a chemical compound which is having formula (CN)₂.
• It is a colorless and toxic gas with a pungent odor.
• It is a pseudohalogen molecule.

• It is a molecule that consists of two CN groups and it is analogous to diatomic halogen molecules like Cl₂.

• It can be prepared by the oxidation of hydrogen cyanide (HCN).

• Its chloride is used in chemical synthesis generally as military poison gas, and warning agent in fumigant gases, and as tear gas.

• Cyanogen, N≡C−C≡N has three sigma and four 'pi' bonds and the Molecule of cyanogen will have x+y equal to 7.
