Transcribed Image Text:**Question 28 of 39**
Ifosfamide is a pharmaceutical used in the treatment of testicular cancer.
Identify the number of sigma bonds in this structure.
**Chemical Structure Description:**
The image shows the structural formula of ifosfamide. It includes:
- A phosphorus atom (P) with a double bond to an oxygen atom (O) and two single bonds to nitrogen atoms (N).
- The phosphorus atom is also connected to an oxygen atom in a ring structure.
- There are several carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) atom chains attached to nitrogen atoms, forming parts of the molecular structure.
- Two chlorine atoms (Cl) are bonded to carbon atoms in the structure.
**Task:**
Count the number of sigma bonds in the depicted chemical structure.
**Note:**
- Sigma bonds represent single covalent bonds formed between two atoms.
- In a molecular structure, each line or single bond represents one sigma bond.
- To determine the total number of sigma bonds, add up all the single lines connecting the atoms.
