Visualizing Concepts

The drawing below shows the overlap of two hybrid orbitals to form a bond in a hydrocarbon.

(a) Which of the following types of bonds is being formed:

(i) $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{C} \sigma$,

(ii) $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{C} \pi$, or

(iii) $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{H} \sigma$?

(b) Which of the following could be the identity of the hydrocarbon:

(i) $\mathrm{CH}_{4}$,

(ii) $\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6}$,

(iii) $\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{4}$, or

(iv) $\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{2}$? [Section 9.6]
