The number of sigma and pi-bonds present...

The number of `sigma and pi`-bonds present between the two carbon atoms in calcium carbide are respectively-

A

`1sigma-1pi`-bond

B

`1sigma-2pi`-bond

C

`2sigma-1pi`-bond

D

`1sigma,1(1)/(2)pi`-bond

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In calcium carbide, two carbon atoms are bonded together by triple bond. Thus between two carbon atom, `1sigma and 2pi` bonds are present.
