What is a double bond, and a tripple bond?

Answer 1

A double bond is where the atoms share two sets of electrons (4 electrons total) and a triple bond is where the atoms share 3 sets of electrons (6 electrons total).

Answer 2

Double bond occurs when two pairs of electrons are shared between two atoms. The first bond is a sigma bond, where the orbitals that overlap are pointed directly toward each other. The second bond is a pi bond, where the orbitals that will overlap are actually perpendicular to the bonding axis.

Triple bonds occur when three pairs of electrons are shared. The third bond is also a pi bond, where this pair of orbitals is perpendicular to both the bonding axis and to the orbitals that form the first pi bond.

Answer 3

if you know what a single covalent bond is, then a double one is simply a single bond times two.

For example..

Single bond: C-C
Double bond: C=C
Triple: (same thing, with 3 lines in the middle, 6 electrons being shared in total)

Each line represents 2 electrons (one from each atom)

Answer 4

A double bond is when two atoms share two pairs of electrons. Likewise, a triple bond is when two atoms share three pairs of electrons.

Answer 5

A double is Sean and Roger. A triple is Sean,Roger and Pierce.
