  Organic Chemistry: A Guided Inquiry, Chapter 3, Problem 13E , additional homework tip  1

Concept introduction: Bonds formed due to head-to-head overlap are termed sigma bond while ones formed by sideways or lateral overlap are named pi-bonds.

The planar system or‘ sp2 hybridized present in molecules such as ethylene as illustrated follows:

  Organic Chemistry: A Guided Inquiry, Chapter 3, Problem 13E , additional homework tip  2

Each carbon in ethylene is trigonal planar due to sp2 hybridization. The right ethylene molecule as it shows all bonds in same plane. The one on right that has wedge and dash bonds indicate the one bond lie above and below the plane respectively.
