Question

How many pi bonds are in sp³ hybridization?

Answer 1

The number of pi bonds present in ${\mathrm{sp}}^3$hybridization:

• When the atomic orbitals in a molecule fuse together and formation of new hybridized orbitals take place is known as hybridization. The type of bond around central atom is determined by hybridization.
• In ${\mathrm{sp}}^3$hybridization, all the four bonds are sigma bonds. Thus, atom with ${\mathrm{sp}}^3$hybridization has zero pi bonds.

Hence, There are zero pi bonds in ${\mathrm{sp}}^3$hybridization.
