Option 2 : Both I and III 

  • Sigma Bond is formed by linear overlapping of atomic orbitals and that is why the extent of overlapping is more in this type of bond. 
  • Pi-Bond is formed by lateral overlapping of atomic orbitals and that is why the extent of overlapping is lesser as compared to the Sigma Bonds. 
  • Sigma Bond is a stronger bond as compared to the Pi-Bond. 
  • Sigma Bonds are generally recognized by the single lines in a molecule whereas, for Pi-Bonds, there are double lines. 
  • For Example, if we take CH- CH= CH2, there are 8 sigma bonds and 1 pi-bond.
