Homework Statement
In the hybradization of ethyne molecule, how many σ and ∏ bonds are being formed?
The Attempt at a Solution
Since, there is a triple bond between the carbon atoms, it should form 2 ∏ bonds and 1 σ bond.
Relatively there will be 2 other σ bonds between Carbon-Hydrogen.
So, all together, there are supposed to be 3 σ and 2 ∏ bonds.
Want to know if the above theory is right?
