Which orbitals can overlap to form a pi bond? a. two p orbitals b. one s orbital and one p orbital c. one s orbital and one hybrid orbital d. two hybrid orbitals e. two s orbitals note: whoever deleted my question last time, is it possible to get those points back?

The correct option is A)

They overlap to form a pi bond

And yes, if a question of yours gets deleted, the amount of points you used are automatically transferred back to your account

Hope this helps

Ans: A) two p-orbitals

The connectivity between two atoms in a given molecule can be via single bonds or multiple bonds.

-Single bonds are categorised as sigma bonds

-Multiple bonds can be:

1) Double bond = 1 sigma + 1 pi bonds

2) Triple bonds = 1 sigma + 2 pi bonds

Sigma bonds are usually formed by the overlap of 2 s-orbitals or some hybrid orbitals that is a combination s,p (or even d-) orbitals

Pi orbitals however are formed by the sideways of overlap of unhybridized p-orbitals.

For example:

Ethylene : H2C=CH2 has a double bond which is a combination of a sigma bond and a pi bond

the increase of protons   hope this

it takes on an electronical energy
