Did they pull out support for aligned equations
My profile description isn't working and sometime back when I tried to align the equations on the main site that didn't work either

@mhchem isn't pingable here anymore :/
Anyway, something is odd with the my triple bonds. The vertical spacing between the three vertical lines is not uniform. Here's a screenshot:

This is at 100% zoom level on Chrome 67 Win 10. Notice that in the above screenshot, only \huge has the correct vertical spacing.
Can any mod (@Loong, are you there?) please super-ping mhchem? Thanks
@AvnishKabaj that's odd, I can't get it to work either. I guess & is not allowed inside \mathrm{}. So, you should replace that \mathrm{} with \ce{}, and it works!
@GaurangTandon "three horizontal lines" facepalm

@GaurangTandon \ce{} wasn't working so I switched to mathrm

@AvnishKabaj ah, I see. Use this then: 
\begin{align}
\text{Av} &\rightarrow \text{Uv}\\
\text{Ni} &\rightarrow \text{Knee}\\
\text{Sh} &\rightarrow \text{Sh}\\
\text{Ka} &\rightarrow \text{Kuh}\\
\text{Baj} &\rightarrow \text{Badge}\\
\end{align}
\ce isn't enabled for all SE sites, probably why it didn't work

@harambe you would need to add the exact steps that you used to reach the final values. Until you add those steps, I cannot help much :(

"Did I take the right steps?" Alex, please note that "check my work" type questions are generally off-topic. Please highlight exactly which calculation step you are suspicious of, or feel would give the wrong answer. In any case, your answer matches the one given by the answer key. So, what do you feel is the problem here? — Gaurang Tandon 19 mins ago

@GaurangTandon Re: triple bonds. I know. I tried my best, but somewhere along the way through MathJax and Chrome, there is some rounding error. Or it may be intentional so that nothing is printed on "half" pixels. I could decide between two options
a) Have the 3 dashes have the same distance. This will look good in large font sizes, but bad in current Chrome at normal size. b) Have it look good now, but in reality it is non-equal distances that one would see on larger font sizes, magnification, high-res screens. Also, browser implementations might change. So I decided for b).
Could you compare the triple bond with mhchem.github.io/MathJax-mhchem Does this look better in your browser?

@mhchem I can confirm that the problem persists on Firefox, but switching the renderer from HTML-CSS to SVG helps a bit.
