minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•2 months agoYou can have as many C-F bonds as you want i a single molecule, but not in a chain, because F will be connected to only a single C.
minus-squareHubertMannelinkfedilink1•2 months agoyeah I think it was refering to a carbon chain that contains c-f bonds on the carbon. not a chaain of c-f bonds. EDITED - ah I finally noticed the pedantic mode which I must have glossed over before.

their example seems to have 10. is it just fake?
