Three carbon atoms are linked by single covalent bonds such that they form the shape of a v. all of the unshared electrons form covalent bonds with hydrogen. how many hydrogen atoms does this molecule contain?
a) 2
b) 6
c) 8
d) 4
e) 10

C) 8

Explanation:

Total number of carbon atoms = 3

Number of single bonds = 3

So, each carbon is bonded to the next carbon with the single bond, Number of unshared electrons left with the terminate carbons are 3 and with the intermediate carbon is 2.

Thus, the two terminate carbon have 3 hydrogen each and the intermediate will have 2.

Total - 8
