Question
The correct statement regarding bond is It is formed due to overlap of atomic orbitals along internuclear axis It primarily decides the direction of covalent bond It is weaker than -bond Both (A) and (B)
Solution
The statement is referring to a pi (π) bond in chemistry.
-
"It is formed due to overlap of atomic orbitals along internuclear axis" - This statement is incorrect. Pi bonds are formed by the side-on overlapping of atomic orbitals, not along the internuclear axis. Sigma (σ) bonds are formed due to overlap of atomic orbitals along the internuclear axis.
-
"It primarily decides the direction of covalent bond" - This statement is also incorrect. The direction of a covalent bond is primarily determined by the sigma (σ) bond, not the pi (π) bond.
-
"It is weaker than -bond" - This statement is correct. Pi (π) bonds are generally weaker than sigma (σ) bonds.
-
"Both (A) and (B)" - As both statements A and B are incorrect, this option is also incorrect.
So, the correct statement regarding the bond is "It is weaker than -bond".
