Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Ethylene (C2H4) has the following bonding:
- Each carbon is sp2 hybridized, forming three σ bonds (two with hydrogen and one with the other carbon).
- There is one π bond between the two carbons formed by the overlap of unhybridized p orbitals.
Thus, ethylene has:
5 σ bonds and 1 π bond.
