This attraction pulls the atoms together and the electrons are shared by both atoms. The atoms form a double bond because there is a strong enough attraction in both directions and room for the ...

A ruthenium catalyst facilitated the polymerization, or polymer addition. Industrial firms have used this catalyst to make ...

According to Bredt's rule, based on his observations in the lab, carbon atoms next to the "Y" junctions cannot form double bonds. Since the carbon near the Y-shaped bridges and its surrounding ...

When atoms of two or more elements bond together, they make a compound. These clusters of strongly bonded atoms are called molecules. See how they're represented by two circles of different size ...

Most hydrogen atoms are not shown, and it is assumed each carbon has enough hydrogens so that each carbon has four bonds. Since linoleic acid has more than one double bond (it has two), it is a ...

(D) This view shows the specific atoms within the various subregions of the phosphatidylcholine molecule. Note that a double bond between two of the carbon atoms in one of the hydrocarbon (fatty ...
