Change the bond between the two carbon atoms in each molecule to a double or triple bond as needed to complete the structure. If the bond should remain a single bond, then you do not need to do anything to the bond. Do not change any other bonds in the molecules.

Answer:

Answer:

The first should be left asis because carbon already has 4 bonds/8 electrons

The second needs to have a double bond to give carbon 4 bonds/8 electrons

The third must have a triple bong between the carbons to give them both 4 bonds/8 electrons

Step-by-step explanation:

Make sure Hydrogen only has 1 bond/2 electrons at all times. Carbon needs a total of 4 bonds/8 electrons
