How many pairs of electrons are shared between the nitrogen atoms in the triple bond of the nitrogen molecule?

Each carbon atom has 4 . In acetylene, there are 3 carbon-carbon bonds, i.e. 6 electrons shared between the carbons. And in ethylene there are 4 electrons shared between the...

Comparing their electronegativities will help determine the type of bond. is the tendency of a bonded atom to attract shared electrons to itself. The difference in electronegativity $(Delta"EN")$ is used...

A chlorine atom has 7 electrons in its outer shell. If it shares one of those with another chlorine atom (and the other one with the first), they can both...

When electrons are unequally shared, it is a polar-covalent bond, and when one atom gets the electron exclusively the two charged ions form an ionic bond.

Each covalent bond is an electron pair, so 3 $e^-$ pair => 3 Covalent Bonds between the carbons.

Take ethylene $H_2C=CH_2$; around each carbon atom there are 4 . Two of these electrons combine with 2 hydrogen atoms (each with 1 electron) to form $2xxC-H$ bonds. Each carbon...

Consider the ethane molecule, $H_3C-CH_3$. Each carbon atom has 6 electrons, 2 of which are inner core and are along for the ride. Thus, there are 4 electrons in the...

There are 4 electron pairs around the nitrogen atom: $3xxN-H$ bonds, and one nitrogen-centred lone pair. The lone pair is stereochemically active (and hence $NH_3$ is a trigonal pyramid, but...

The electron pairs mutually repel each other; and their most stable geometry is as a trigonal plane, with $120""^@$ between the pairs. But we describe on the basis of the...

In carbon monoxide, $""^(-):C-=O^+$; clearly there are three bonding pairs..... In carbon dioxide, $O=C=O$; there are four bonding pairs.... There is also carbon suboxide, $O=C=C=C=O$, there are eight bonding pairs....not...
