76) sigma is with every single bond. For double bonds, there is one sigma and one pi, for triple bonds there is one sigma and two pi.
78) An acid is a molecular compound that when dissolved in water
produces H+1 ions.
79) i believe it is three( not sure though)
EC) it was already answered here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AuAd1...

Covalent Bonds-Covalent bonding is a sort of chemical bonding between 2 non steel atoms that's characterized by potential of the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms and different covalent bonds. A covalent bond is formed between 2 non-metals that have comparable electronegativities. Neither atom is "sturdy" adequate to entice electrons from the different. For stabilization, they share their electrons from outer molecular orbit with others Ionic Bonds-Ionic bond, additionally primary as electrovalent bond is a sort of bond formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound. those styles of bonds take place in particular between a steel and a non steel atom. An ionic bond is formed between a metallic and a non-metallic. Non-metals(-ve ion) are "greater suitable" than the metallic(+ve ion) and can get electrons very genuinely from the metallic. those 2 opposite ions entice one yet another and variety the ionic bond. EG: Covalent: Methane (CH4), Hydro Chloric acid (HCL), which components are all nonmetals Ionic: Sodium chloride (NaCl), Sulphuric Acid (H2SO4 ) and so on.
