Question

Number of π bonds and σ bonds in the following structure is 

Moderate
Solution

[Step 1]:
All  C-H bonds are single covalent bonds are σ bonds.
[Step 2]:
All C-C  single covalent bonds are σ bonds.
[Step 3]:
 C=C double covalent bond contains one σ bond and one π bond.
[Step 4]:
Therefore, number of  C-H  σ bonds = 10
       number of  C-C   σ bonds = 7
       number of  C=C   σ bonds = 6
       number of  C=C   π bonds = 6
