Answer:
s – orbital is spherical in shape and overlapping takes place to some extent in all directions. ... As the two orbitals are overlapping such that the overlapped region lies on the line joining the two nuclei of the overlapping orbitals (axial overlapping) bond formed is sigma bondStrength of bonds depends on its bond length. ... This is because sigma bonds are formed by head on overlapping of the orbitals which are more effective than the sideway overalapping of orbitals in case of pi bonds. Sigma bonds are further classified as s-s , s-p & p-p bonds.
