If the z-axis is the molecular axis, then `piMOs` are formed by the overlap of (i) `p_z` and `p_z` (ii) `p_y` and `p_y` (iii) `s` and `p_z` (iv) `p_x` and `p_x`A. (ii), (iv)B. (i), (iii)C. (i), (ii)D. (ii), (iii)

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Overlap of the orbitals along the axis joining the nuclei produces `sigma` molecular orbitals, while lateral overlap of atomic orbitals forms `pi` molecular orbitals.
