Considering x-axis as the internuclear axis which out of the following will not form a sigma bond and why? (a) 1s and 1s (b) 1s and (c) and (d) 1s and 2s
Solution:
A bond formed between two atoms by the overlap of singly occupied orbitals along their axes (end to end overlap) is called σ bond. Hence, 1s and 1s, 1s and and 1s and 2s will form s bonds. π bonds are formed by the sidewise or lateral overlapping of p-orbitals. Hence, and orbitals will form p bond.
