I'm just curious- The idea came to me this morning when I saw the 3D rendering of an ethane molecule. I couldn't find anythink on the internet so, yeah, what does /sci/ think?
dem bond angles

Switch up a few atoms and that could make for the most ovr'pwr'd thin ass battery seen to man
Patent it quickly OP

The helium atoms would never be close enough together to form bonds like that. Instead it would be two carbon-central tetrahedrons touching tips.

Thanks.
I know this is a retarded question, but how is helium able to bond like that, it has a full valence shell. Is it an ion or something?
>>7781894
its called covalent bonding
>>7781901
I know, but helium is a noble gas. Is it sharing electrons in a manner that causes the s2 shell to fill?
>>7781903
The pic in op is not possible whatsoever, i was just making a joke
>>7781894
some noble gases like xenon are capable of forming compounds with really reactive stuff like fluorine. OPs molecule wouldn't exist for probably any longer than a picosecond
