Washington, D.C., formally the District of Columbia and commonly referred to as Washington, the District, or simply D.C., is the capital of the United States. The signing of the Residence Act on July 16, 1790, approved the creation of a capital district located along the Potomac River on the country's East Coast.
Now three of these sp 3 hybrid orbitals form sigma bonds by overlapping with three 1s orbitals of the three hydrogens and the remaining sp 3 hybrid orbital forms a sigma bond by overlapping with the sp 3 hybrid orbital of the other carbon which also has three Hydrogens bonded to it in the similar manner.
According to valence bond theory, how does the Ï bond between the two carbon atoms in C2H4 arise? (Consider the x-axis to be along the line joining the nuclei of the two carbon atoms.) The overlap of an sp2 hybrid orbital on one C-atom with an sp2 orbital on the other C-atom
