The number and type of bonds between two carbon atoms in calcium carbide are

A

One sigma, one pi

B

One sigma, two pi

C

Two sigma, one pi

D

Two sigma, two pi.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Structure of calcium carbide is `overset(2+)Ca(overset(-)Cequivoverset(-)C).` The two carbon atoms are bonded with each other through a triple bond. So, one sigma and two `pi` bonds between them.
