How do you determine whether double or triple bond?
For instance, in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the oxygen atoms have a single bond between them. Why not a double bond?
In carbon monoxide, there is a double bond between C and O. Why not a triple bond + one long pair on each atom (instead of double bond and 2 lone pairs to each)
Thank you.
