Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which type of bond is formed by the overlap of p orbitals?
  • Step 1: Understand that atoms can bond together to form molecules.
  • Step 2: Know that there are different types of bonds, such as sigma bonds and pi bonds.
  • Step 3: Learn that p orbitals are specific regions around an atom where electrons can be found.
  • Step 4: Recognize that pi bonds are formed when two p orbitals from different atoms overlap.
  • Step 5: Remember that this overlap happens side-to-side, which is different from how sigma bonds are formed.
