Answer:
CO2 has 2 sigma and 2 pi bonds.
Hence ratio of sigma : pi = 1
Explanation:
O=C=O is the structure of CO2.

Hey !
Ratio of Sigma and pi bonds:
It is possible to identify the sigma and pi bonds from the hybridisation of atoms which can be obtained from the Lewis structure.
(or)
No. of sigma and pi bonds can also be identified by noting the No. of double bonds in the compound.
As per the definition,
• A sigma bond is formed when the two unfilled atomic orbitals of atom overlaps with their internuclear axes. It will always represent a single bond.
• A pie bond is formed when the two half filled atomic orbitals belonging to the bonding atoms overlap along sides (or) when there is a sidewise or lateral overlap of unfilled orbitals of bonding atoms.
✓✓ A single double bond will always have 1 Sigma bond and 1 pi bond
Now,
In CO2, there are 2 double bonds.
=> O=C=O
•°• It has 2 Sigma bonds and 2 Pi bonds
Ratio of Sigma and pi bonds = 2 :2 = 1:1
