Which of the following is the correct order of overlapping of orbitals in terms of bond strength?
p-p > s-p > s-s
Which of the following is true about sigma-bonds?
They form due to co-axial or linear overlapping of atomic orbitals.
In which case does a covalent bond form due to 2s-2p overlapping of atomic orbitals?
When the 'n' value of the 2s orbital is less than the 'n' value of the 2p orbital.
