Nodal planes of pi-bonds in CH(2)=C=C=CH...

Nodal planes of `pi`-bonds in `CH_(2)=C=C=CH_(2)` are located in,

A

the molecular plane

B

a plane parallel to the molecular plane

C

a plane perpendicular to the molecular plane.

D

a plane perpendicular to the molecular plane which contains the carbon-carbon `-sigma` bond

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C

Pi bond is formed by the p-orbitals whose lobes have minima in the plane of molecule, hence molecular plane and a plane perpendicular to the molecular plane is the nodal plane of pi-bond.
