In this type of bonding the 2s orbital and the three 2p orbitals of the carbon atom are mixed to produce four identical orbitals, a process known as sp3 hybridization. The CS2 molecule is linear and the carbon atom is bonded to each sulphur by a double bond.
Two oxygen atoms and 1 carbon atom will each. share two electrons to form four covalent bonds. and make a carbon dioxide molecule (CO2). This is a picture of a carbon dioxide molecule. By sharing the four electrons where the shells touch each. oxygen and carbon atom can count 8 electrons in its outer shell. These full outer shells with their shared electrons are now stable, and the CO 2 molecule will not react further with other oxygen or carbon atoms. Each electron pair is one bond. Carbon and oxygen have two bonds each between their atoms. This is called a double bond. The structural formula of a carbon dioxide molecule is written
