« on: September 29, 2009, 04:04:29 PM »
How many σ bonds does C1 have in CH2CCl2 ? im guessing 3? im not sure though

How many  bonds does C1 have ?  ... 1?

What atomic or hybrid orbitals make up the  bond between C1 and C2 in dichloroethylene, CH2CCl2

Carbon atoms have 1s, 2s and 2p atomic orbitals that contain electrons. Which one(s) is(are) responsible for the pi bond?
(Remark, I assume you meant "pi" bond in your questions. The symbol got lost in your post.)
