In Chapter 2 , you also learned that when a carbon atom forms single covalent
bonds , the arrangement of its four hybrid orbitals causes the bonds to angle
toward the corners of an imaginary tetrahedron ( see Figure 2.16b ) . The bond
angles ...

carbon dioxide molecule ( CO2 ) , a single carbon atom is joined to two atoms of
oxygen by double covalent bonds . The structural formula for CO2 is shown here :
O = C = 0 Each line in a structural formula represents a pair of shared electrons ...
