Question

A sigma $\left(\sigma \right)$ bond is stronger than a pi $\left(\pi \right)$ bond.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

$\sigma$- bond is formed from head wise overlapping (axial overlapping) whereas $\pi$- bond is formed by side wise(parallel) overlapping.

Since the overlapping along the axis is maximum as compared to side wise, So $\sigma$-bond is stronger than $\pi$-bond.
