Chapter 11, Problem 11.20P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether two σ bonds comprise a double bond is true or false is to be identified. Also, the false statement is to be corrected.

Concept introduction:

The sigma bond is the covalent bond that is formed by the axial overlap of orbitals. The pi bond is formed by the lateral overlap of orbitals. Both types of bonds can be bonding or anti-bonding interaction. Bonding interaction takes place when there is an overlap of orbitals in the same phase and antibonding interaction occurs when the orbital overlap in opposite phase. Sigma bond is stronger than the pi bond.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether a triple bond consists of one π bond and two σ bonds is true or false is to be identified. Also, the false statement is to be corrected.

Concept introduction:

The sigma bond is the covalent bond that is formed by the axial overlap of orbitals. The pi bond is formed by the lateral overlap of orbitals. Both types of bonds can be bonding or anti-bonding interaction. Bonding interaction takes place when there is an overlap of orbitals in the same phase and antibonding interaction occurs when the orbital overlap in opposite phase. Sigma bond is stronger than the pi bond.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the bonds formed from atomic s orbitals are always σ bonds is true or false is to be identified. Also, the false statement is to be corrected.

Concept introduction:

The sigma bond is the covalent bond that is formed by the axial overlap of orbitals. The pi bond is formed by the lateral overlap of orbitals. Both types of bonds can be bonding or anti-bonding interaction. Bonding interaction takes place when there is an overlap of orbitals in the same phase and antibonding interaction occurs when the orbital overlap in opposite phase. Sigma bond is stronger than the pi bond.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether a π bond restricts rotation about the σ-bond axis is true or false is to be identified. Also, the false statement is to be corrected.

Concept introduction:

The sigma bond is the covalent bond that is formed by the axial overlap of orbitals. The pi bond is formed by the lateral overlap of orbitals. Both types of bonds can be bonding or anti-bonding interaction. Bonding interaction takes place when there is an overlap of orbitals in the same phase and antibonding interaction occurs when the orbital overlap in opposite phase. Sigma bond is stronger than the pi bond.

(e)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether a π bond consists of two pairs of electrons is true or false is to be identified. Also, the false statement is to be corrected.

Concept introduction:

The sigma bond is the covalent bond that is formed by the axial overlap of orbitals. The pi bond is formed by the lateral overlap of orbitals. Both types of bonds can be bonding or anti-bonding interaction. Bonding interaction takes place when there is an overlap of orbitals in the same phase and antibonding interaction occurs when the orbital overlap in opposite phase. Sigma bond is stronger than the pi bond.

(f)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether end-to-end overlap results in a bond with electron density above and below the bond axis is true or false is to be identified. Also, the false statement is to be corrected.

Concept introduction:

The sigma bond is the covalent bond that is formed by the axial overlap of orbitals. The pi bond is formed by the lateral overlap of orbitals. Both types of bonds can be bonding or anti-bonding interaction. Bonding interaction takes place when there is an overlap of orbitals in the same phase and antibonding interaction occurs when the orbital overlap in opposite phase. Sigma bond is stronger than the pi bond.
