Pi `(pi)` bond is formed by the overlap of

A

`p-p` orbitals

B

`s-s` orbitals

C

s-p orbitals

D

s-d orbitals.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In the formation of pi bond the atomic orbitals overlap in such a way that their axis remain parallel to each other and perpendicular to the internuclear axis. The orbitals formed due to sidewise overlapping consist of two saucer type charged clouds above and below the plane of the participating atoms.
