Chapter U2, Problem 10STP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of electrons shared between carbon and nitrogen in hydrogen cyanide HCN, need to be identified.

Concept introduction:

A covalent bond is known as the molecular bond, is a chemical bond which includes the sharing of electron pairs amid atoms.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 10STP

The correct option is (A), 6.

Explanation of Solution

The structural formula of hydrogen cyanide is:

Living by Chemistry, Chapter U2, Problem 10STP

Here, three electrons from carbon and three electrons from nitrogen shared and formed triple bond between carbon and nitrogen.

So, the total number of electrons are 6.

Thus, the correct option is (A).
