Correct answer: 10
The question image/formula is missing after the words “The number of sigma bonds in”. So the compound whose sigma bonds are to be counted is not visible in the prompt.
However, since a stored correct answer = 10 is provided, the intended molecule likely has a total of 10 sigma bonds.
General method to count sigma bonds
- Every single bond is one sigma () bond.
- In a double bond, there is:
- one sigma bond
- one pi () bond
- In a triple bond, there is:
- one sigma bond
- two pi bonds
So, to count sigma bonds, we count:
- all single bonds,
- plus one from each double bond,
- plus one from each triple bond.
Based on the stored answer
Since the actual structure is absent, I cannot independently derive the value from the molecule shown. With the available information, the answer is taken as:
But this agreement is only because the structure is missing from the prompt.
