The angular shape of molecule $\left(\mathrm{O}_3\right)$ consists of

The angular shape of molecule $\left(\mathrm{O}_3\right)$ consists of
  1. 2 sigma and 1 pi bond
  2. 1 sigma and 2 pi bonds
  3. 2 sigma and 2 pi bonds
  4. 1 sigma and 1 pi bond

Solution

In case of sing e bond, there is only one \(\sigma\)-bond, in case of double bond, there is one a and one \(\pi\)-bonds while in case of triple bond, there is one a and two \(\pi\)-bonds. Thus angular shape of ozone \(\left(O_3\right)\) contains \(2 \sigma\) and \(1^{-1}\) one r s
