Question

In which molecule the bond is form by p – p overlapping?

H2

H2O

HCl

Cl2

​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge\underline\bold\red{ANSWER}$

The p-p overlapping is observed in Chlorine molecule.

Option (D) .

Explanation:

p-p overlapping is shown in chlorine molecules because,

The p-p orbital produced by the overlapping of p-orbital in the atom. So, in the case of chlorine molecule, it is produced by 3 p_{z} orbitals of two chlorine atom.

The valency of chlorine is having only one atom in a shell which shows its instability and activeness to readily forms a covalent bond with other molecules having some unstable configuration. Both p-p orbital of the chlorine molecules overlaps together to complete their respective valency and they attain stability..
