Question on bond strength and length
« on: September 23, 2007, 10:10:40 PM »
hey guys, i have a question. why are the bond strengths and lengths for the C - H bonds ethane, ethene, and ethyne different? I think it has something to do with the angles but I can't come to a good conclusion. thanks for the *delete me*  :)
