NEET CHEMISTRYChemical Bonding and Molecular StructureEasy

Question

The total number of π\pi-bond electrons in the following structure is:

A

4

B

8

C

12

D

16

Step-by-Step Solution

Although the specific structure is missing from the provided text, the number of π\pi-bond electrons can be calculated by multiplying the number of π\pi bonds by 2 (since each π\pi bond consists of a shared pair of 2 electrons). In the original NEET 2015 question, the given structure contained exactly 4 double bonds (which implies 4 σ\sigma bonds and 4 π\pi bonds). Therefore, the total number of π\pi-bond electrons is 4×2=84 \times 2 = 8.

Exam Context & Concepts Covered

This question aligns with the NEET CHEMISTRY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
