The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correct statements about sigma and pi bonds, we will analyze each option based on the properties of these types of bonds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Sigma Bonds**: - Sigma bonds are formed by the head-on overlapping of atomic orbitals. This overlap occurs along the line connecting the nuclei of the two atoms involved in the bond. - Sigma bonds are characterized by their cylindrical symmetry around the bond axis. 2. **Understanding Pi Bonds**: - Pi bonds are formed by the side-to-side overlapping of p orbitals. This overlap occurs above and below the line connecting the nuclei of the bonded atoms. - Pi bonds do not have a cylindrical symmetry like sigma bonds and are generally weaker than sigma bonds. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A**: "Sigma bond lies on the line joining the nuclei of bonded atoms." - This statement is **correct** because sigma bonds are indeed formed along the line connecting the nuclei. - **Option B**: "Pi electron cloud lies on either side of the line joining the nuclei of bonded atoms." - This statement is **correct** as pi bonds have their electron density located above and below the line joining the nuclei. - **Option C**: "2P pi and 3D pi that is pi bond is stronger than 2P pi 2 pi Pi-Pi bond." - This statement is **incorrect**. Generally, 2p-2p pi bonds are stronger than 2p-3d pi bonds due to better overlap in similar types of orbitals. - **Option D**: "Sigma bond has primary effect to decide direction of covalent bond which Pi bond has no primary effect in direction of bond." - This statement is **correct** because sigma bonds determine the orientation of the molecule, while pi bonds do not influence the direction of the bond. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct statements regarding sigma and pi bonds are **Option A**, **Option B**, and **Option D**. ### Final Answer: The correct statements regarding sigma and pi bonds are: - Option A - Option B - Option D
