Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
In the molecular orbital theory, which orbitals combine to form sigma bonds?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand what a sigma bond is. A sigma bond is a type of chemical bond that is formed when two atomic orbitals overlap.
Step 2: Identify the types of orbitals involved in sigma bonds. The orbitals that can combine to form sigma bonds are s orbitals and p orbitals.
Step 3: Learn about the overlap. Sigma bonds are created by the head-on (or end-to-end) overlap of these orbitals.
Step 4: Remember that two s orbitals can also overlap to form a sigma bond.
