Answer» a)Sigma And Pi Bonds. Asigma bondis a covalentbondwhich is formed by the head on overlap of two atomic orbitals. The combination of overlapping orbitals can be s-s, s-pzor pz-pz. ... But there can be a maximum of twopi bondsbetween two atoms in a molecule. b)Pi bonds areusually weakerthan sigma bonds. Quantum mechanics says this is because the orbital paths are parallel so there is much less overlap between the p-orbitals.Pi bondshappen when two atomic orbitals are in contact through two areas of overlap. please like my answer if you find it useful |
