- A. It would be disproportion
- B. It would be ratio active
- C. It violates the pauli exclusion principle
- D. No H-H bond would form

About Sigma and Pi Bonds
A sigma bond forms by direct end-to-end overlap along the internuclear axis, whereas a pi bond forms by sideways overlap of parallel orbitals. The topic covers single, double and triple bonds, bond composition, restricted rotation and the relation between sigma and pi bonding and orbital hybridisation.
