Question
Chapter 13, Problem 17E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
There are two types of covalent bond
Sigma bond bond
Sigma bond: A sigma bond is a covalent bond which is formed by the head on overlap of two atomic orbitals.
Bond:
A bond is a covalent bond which is formed by the side- to side overlap of two atomic orbitals.
Concept introduction:
bond form independently while bond always form with bond. Bond is stronger than bond. As size of atomic orbital increase the tendency of formation of bond decreases.
To determine:
The reason silicon form only single bonds with oxygen, but carbon, which is in the same family as silicon, forms double bonds with oxygen in many compounds.
