Question

number of sigma and pi bonds in N2 molecule is

Answer 1

there is two pi and one sigma bond in nitrogen molecule...

Answer 2

Sigma bonds = 1

Pi bonds = 2

Explanation:

• Sigma bond is formed by overlap of atomic orbitals or hybrid orbitals along the bond axis.

In $N_{2}$ molecule, 1 sigma bond is possible.

• Pi bond is formed by the sidewise positive overlap of atomic orbitals along a perpendicular direction to the internuclear axis.

In $N_{2}$ molecule, 2 pi bonds are possible.

• The bond looks like this:

                               : N≡N :

Hence, there are 2 pi bonds and 1 sigma bond in $N_{2}$ molecule.
