Recall that a covalent bond involves the sharing of electron pairs between two atoms.
Understand that a single covalent bond corresponds to the sharing of 2 electrons (1 pair).
Recognize that a double covalent bond involves sharing 4 electrons (2 pairs).
Know that a triple covalent bond means three pairs of electrons are shared between the two atoms.
Calculate the total number of shared electrons in a triple bond by multiplying 3 pairs by 2 electrons per pair, giving \(3 \times 2 = 6\) electrons.
