Document Summary

The valence electrons in a dubnium (db) atom are 7s26d3. One of the 7s electrons: n = __7__ l = __0__ ml = ___0_ ms = __+ . The other 7s electron: n = __7__ l = __0__ ml = ___0_ ms = __- . One of the 6d electrons: n = __6__ l = __2__ ml = __ -1_ ms = __+ . The second 6d electron: n = __6__ l = __2__ ml = ___0_ ms = __+ . The third 6d electron: n = __6__ l = __2__ ml = ___1_ ms = __+ . A carbon carbon triple bond is stronger than a carbon carbon single bond. The four electrons in the pi bonds in acetylene are delocalized, meaning that they are further away from the carbon nuclei, and thus are easier to remove. An oxidant such as oxygen will easily pull these electrons away from acetylene.
