Chemistry
Differentiate between the following with a suitable example :
Single covalent bond & triple covalent bond.
Answer
| Single Covalent Bond | Triple Covalent Bond |
|---|---|
| The chemical bond formed due to mutual sharing of one pair of electrons between the given pair of atoms of non-metallic elements is called a Single Covalent Bond. | The chemical bond formed due to mutual sharing of three pairs of electrons between the given pair of atoms of non-metallic elements is called a Triple Covalent Bond. |
| E.g., Hydrogen [H - H] | E.g., Nitrogen [N ≡ N] |
