The molecule ch2o contains two single bonds and one double bond. true or false

True

Explanation:

CH2O is a polar molecule. It has three polar bonds that are arranged asymmetrically, thus allowing their dipole moments to add up and give the molecule an overall dipole moment. CH2O has a central carbon atom that forms two single bonds with the two hydrogen atoms and a double bond with the oxygen atom.

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

As the given molecule is . Name of this compound is formaldehyde as it contains aldehyde functional group, that is, CHO group.

In this molecule, carbon is the central atom and both the hydrogen atoms are attached to the carbon atom through one single bond each.

Whereas oxygen is also attached to the carbon atom but through a double bond.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement molecule contains two single bonds and one double bond, is true.
