2. Single bond - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_bond

   As a Lewis structure, a single bond is denoted as AːA or A-A, for which A represents an element. [2] In the first rendition, each dot represents a shared electron, and in the second rendition, the bar represents both of the electrons shared in the single bond. A covalent bond can also be a double bond or a triple bond. A single bond is weaker ...

3. Carbon–carbon bond - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–carbon_bond

   In fact, the carbon atoms in the single bond need not be of the same hybridization. Carbon atoms can also form double bonds in compounds called alkenes or triple bonds in compounds called alkynes. A double bond is formed with an sp 2-hybridized orbital and a p-orbital that is not involved in the hybridization. A triple bond is formed with an sp ...

4. Valence bond theory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_bond_theory

   For example, a bond between two s-orbital electrons is a sigma bond, because two spheres are always coaxial. In terms of bond order, single bonds have one sigma bond, double bonds consist of one sigma bond and one pi bond, and triple bonds contain one sigma bond and two pi bonds. However, the atomic orbitals for bonding may be hybrids.

5. Covalent bond - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_bond

   A double bond between two given atoms consists of one σ and one π bond, and a triple bond is one σ and two π bonds. [8] Covalent bonds are also affected by the electronegativity of the connected atoms which determines the chemical polarity of the bond. Two atoms with equal electronegativity will make nonpolar covalent bonds such as H–H.

6. Valence (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_(chemistry)

   In some molecules, there is a difference between valence and oxidation state for a given atom. For example, in disulfur decafluoride molecule S 2 F 10, each sulfur atom has 6 valence bonds (5 single bonds with fluorine atoms and 1 single bond with the other sulfur atom). Thus, each sulfur atom is hexavalent or has valence 6, but has oxidation ...

7. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

   Molecules, by definition, are most often held together with covalent bonds involving single, double, and/or triple bonds, where a "bond" is a shared pair of electrons (the other method of bonding between atoms is called ionic bonding and involves a positive cation and a negative anion).

8. Covalent radius - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_radius

   The covalent radius, r cov, is a measure of the size of an atom that forms part of one covalent bond. It is usually measured either in picometres (pm) or angstroms (Å), with 1 Å = 100 pm. In principle, the sum of the two covalent radii should equal the covalent bond length between two atoms, R (AB) = r (A) + r (B).

9. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_(chemistry)

   This mixed single and double bond (or triple bond) character is typical for all molecules in which bonds have a different bond order in different contributing structures. Bond lengths can be compared using bond orders. For example, in cyclohexane the bond order is 1 while that in benzene is 1 + (3 ÷ 6) = 1 + 1 ⁄ 2. Consequently, benzene has ...
