The correct Answer is:
To determine the number of sigma (σ) and pi (π) bonds in the compound HC≡C-CH=CH-CH₃, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Draw the Structure First, we need to visualize the structure of the compound. The given compound can be expanded as follows: ``` H H \ / C || C / \ H C / \ H H ``` ### Step 2: Identify the Bonds Now, we will identify the types of bonds present in the structure: 1. **Single Bonds (σ bonds)**: Every single bond between atoms is a sigma bond. 2. **Double Bonds**: A double bond consists of one sigma bond and one pi bond. 3. **Triple Bonds**: A triple bond consists of one sigma bond and two pi bonds. ### Step 3: Count the Sigma Bonds - **Between H and C**: Each H atom bonded to C is a single bond (σ). - **Between C and C**: The first bond in a double bond is a σ bond, and the first bond in a triple bond is also a σ bond. Let's count: - From HC (1 σ bond) - From C≡C (1 σ bond) - From C=CH (1 σ bond) - From CH-CH₃ (1 σ bond) - Each C atom has 2 H atoms, contributing to additional σ bonds. Counting all: - H-C (1) - C-C (1 for the triple bond) - C-C (1 for the double bond) - C-H (3 from CH₃ and CH) - Total σ bonds = 10 ### Step 4: Count the Pi Bonds - For the double bond (C=CH), there is 1 π bond. - For the triple bond (C≡C), there are 2 π bonds. Counting all: - C=CH (1 π bond) - C≡C (2 π bonds) - Total π bonds = 3 ### Final Count - Total σ bonds = 10 - Total π bonds = 3 ### Conclusion The number of sigma bonds is 10, and the number of pi bonds is 3.
