Difference between sigma and pi bond class 11

Answered by admin @



A sigma bond is formed due to the head-on overlap between atomic orbitals. It is usually defined for diatomic molecules. This bond is the strongest covalent chemical bond. A pi bond is a bond formed due to the overlap of the orbital path of electrons. This bond is weaker than a sigma bond.



A single bond is always a sigma bond. On the other hand, a double bond has one sigma bond and one pi bond. Similarly, a triple bond has one sigma bond and two pi bonds.
