Pi bonds are usually weaker than sigma bonds. Quantum mechanics says this is because the orbital paths are parallel so there is much less overlap between the p-orbitals. Pi bonds happen when two atomic orbitals are in contact through two areas of overlap. ... Electrons in pi bonds are sometimes called pi electrons
