Chemistry - CHEMICAL BONDING Question with Solution | TestHub

A$\text{σ}-$bond is stronger than a$\text{π}-$bond.
Sigma$\left(\text{σ}\right)$bonds are formed by head-on overlap of unhybridised$\text{s}-\text{s},\text{p}-\text{p}\text{o}\text{r}\text{s}-\text{p}$orbitals and hybridized orbitals$\left(\text{s}\text{p},\text{s}{\text{p}}^2,\text{s}{\text{p}}^3,\text{s}{\text{p}}^3\text{d}\text{a}\text{n}\text{d}\text{s}{\text{p}}^3{\text{d}}^2\right)$. Hence,$\text{σ}$bond are strong bonds. Where as Pi$\left(\text{π}\right)-$bonds are formed by side-wise overlap of unhybridised p and d orbitals. Hence$\text{π}$bonds are weak bonds.
