To determine which atomic orbitals will form a sigma bond when considering the X-axis as the internuclear axis, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding Sigma Bonds A sigma bond is formed when two atomic orbitals overlap along the internuclear axis. This overlap can occur between: - Two s orbitals - An s orbital and a p orbital (where the p orbital is oriented along the internuclear axis) - Two p orbitals that are oriented along the internuclear axis (e.g., p_x with p_x) ...
