True statements about the above molecule ?(AM I CORRECT?) ~ Chemistry

In summary, the bond between carbon and nitrogen is the strongest in the molecule due to it being triple bonded. The C-C bond is single bonded and therefore not the strongest. The C=O bond is more polar than the C-C bond due to the even distribution of electrons. The C=C bond is not more polar than any of the C-H bonds, as there is an uneven distribution of electrons in the C=C bond.

Which of the following are true statements about the above molecule ?

a) The bond between carbon and nitrogen should be the strongest bond in the molecule

b) The C-C bond should be the strongest bond in the molecule

c) The C=O bond is more polar than the C-C bond

d) The C=C bond is more polar than any of the C-H bonds


Homework Equations


No equations are required.


The Attempt at a Solution


Attempt:
a - True, since the bond between carbon and nitrogen is triple bonded.
b - False, only single bonded
c - True - Even distribution?
d - False - Uneven distribution?

Thank you, please help me clarify my answer. I made attempts yet I am not sure. :)
