Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
As long as you state there is one sigma and 2 pi bonds it doesn't matter how you assign them.
Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
It seems like all we need to know for sigma/pi bonds for Test 2 is the definition and properties of sigma/pi bonds and what one/two/three bonds mean, is that right?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
Yes we need the definition and how they are present in the bonds. In the triple bond, there would be 1 sigma and 2 pi bonds most of the time.

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
The order of which of the 3 bonds is sigma and which are pi isn't important, even the book doesn't spend very much time on that. I think we probably just have to know that a triple bond has 1 sigma bond and 2 pi bonds
Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
You don't need to order the bonds. Just know how many sigma and pi bonds are present in each kind of bond (Triple Bond = 1 Sigma Bond and 2 Pi Bonds,etc.)

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
You just need to know that triple bonds consist of one sigma bond and two pi bonds

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
All bonds are denoted as straight lines, so there is no way to differentiate them

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
a triple bond is composed of a sigma bond and two pi bonds. The order does not matter.

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
Order is not important, just know a triple bond means a sigma bond with two pi bonds

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
Order does not matter as long as you state that there is one sigma and two pi bonds

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
a triple has 1 sigmas and 2 pi bonds. you wont be able to tell they are shown as straight lines

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
The triple bond will just contain 1 sigma and 2 pi bonds, I think that's all the detail we need to know.
Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
Delocalized pi bonding is seen in resonance structure with varying locations of double and triple bond.

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
I think you just need to know that there is a sigma bond and two pi bonds in a triple bond, but I think it is most common to say sigma bond first before pi bonds.
Hope it helps!

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
One sigma and two pi bonds make up a triple bond, and there is no particular order or anything for them.

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
I don't believe there is a specific order in which these bonds need to be numbered, however one must be sigma and any remaining must be pi bonds.

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
the order does not matter as long as you know how many sigma and pi bonds there are

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
A triple bond has 1 sigma bond and 2 pi bonds but otherwise the order does not matter.

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
I don't think the order would matter, but I think of it as first a sigma bond and then a pi bond, as single bonds are sigma bonds.
Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
I don't think the order matters, as long as you state one sigma and two pi bonds

Re: Sigma and Pi Bonds
The first bond in a triple bond is a sigma bond, however, the 2 others are necessarily Pi bonds!
