If z-axis is the molecular axis, then π - molecular orbitals are
formed by the overlap of

s + pz
px + py
pz + pz
px + px

Dear Student,

If z-axis is the molecular axis, then pi-molecular orbitals are
formed by overlap of Px and Py The orbitals perpendicular to the
axis takes part in overlapping for pi-molecular orbitals formation
Correct option is 2

If z-axis is the molecular axis, then π - molecular orbitals are formed by the overlap of s + pz px + py pz + pz px + px

If z-axis is the molecular axis, then π - molecular orbitals are formed by the overlap of

s + p_z

p_x + p_y

p_z + p_z

p_x + p_x
