Question

considering z-axis as internuclear axis, which of the following will form the sigma bond or pi bond 1)2s-2pz. 2)2px-2px​

Answer 1

Answer:

The bond axis or internuclear axis is the imaginary straight line that connects the nuclei of atoms bonded to each other in a molecule. You can take any axis as internuclear axis, if z axis is chosen as internuclear axis, no overlapping can take place between s and px, py or pz orbital i.e., there is zero overlap
