what is difference between pi bonds and sigma bond
Answers
Sigma bond: This type of covalent bond is formed by the axial or end to end overlapping of half filled atomic orbitals of the atoms participating in bonding. The electron cloud formed as a result of axial overlap is cylindrically symmetrical about inter nuclear axis.
Pi bond: This type of bond is formed by lateral or side wise overlap of the half filled atomic orbitals of the atoms participating in bonding. The pi bond consists of two charged clods above and below the plane of the atoms involved in bond formation.
Answer:
◆ Sigma Bond : A type of covalent bond in which most of the electrons are located in between the nuclei.
◆Pie Bond :A type of covalent bond in which the electron density is concentrated around the line bonding the atoms.
