Orbital Overlap Diagram for C2H4 (Ethene / acetylene, double bond)

Ethene, which is two carbon atoms double bonded and two hydrogen atoms on EACH carbon (four hydrogen atoms total), requires ONE pi bond. This means each carbon is sp2 hybridized. This in turn means you have three hybridized sp2 orbitals arranged in a trigonal-planar way around each carbon, AND you have a leftover p orbital on each as well. You can show the overlap of these orbitals to make sigma and pi bonds.

I tell you what, that was insanely beautifully explained.
I was always confused why they are showing two pi bonds here But this video opened up my brain.
Really loved this. Also Subscribed to your channel.
Plzzz Keep making videos Sir .

Clear explanation sir....The way you explained using different colours and hybridized and unhybridized orbitals overlapping is

Chemistry leeches each and every brain cell out of you 😂

Thanks for your support and genuine sharing of your knowledge teacher!

[kamahiemockchew]

Thank you so much! I have gone through at least 10+ other YouTube videos and it wasn't till your video till I finally got it. Expanied so well. Thank you :)

[adrianneadonis]

Thank you i saw a reel on Instagram about the different YouTubers that can help with chemistry I am glad i subscribed ❤

I always confused why we call hybrid orbitals SP2, always remembered it with valency but now FINALLY understood the merging part. Ty so much!!!!

[jianahe]

i think this video singlehandedly saved my chemistry mark

[faxreal]

you should make more videos like that I loved the explanation thanks a lot

THANK YOU SM SIR YOURE SUCH A LIFE SAVIOUR

[rhythemmalik]

Amazingly explained sir . This video cleared all my doubts ❤️ please keep making such videos Student from INDIA 🇮🇳

[Fyha]

Amazing video with splendid explanation! Tysm

[yoyogirl]

Thank you very much sir ❤️❤️💐

I am a student from sri lanka 🇱🇰 💛

[iipeaxyii_moon]

can anyone say which formula he used to get to knew about 12 e in starting ?

[pastimepursuit]

This was helpful, much thanks. I clicked like to support your channel.

[ahmedadda]

Nous avons 4 liaisons de C et aucune Doublet nonliant et donc pourquoi l'hybridation est sp2

[beastmaster]

You're absolutely amazing Sir! Thank you so so much!

[TrungLe-xizz]

Hi do we need to write the pi bond on the top?

[emilyzheng]

Did you say hydrogens do not hybridize?

[hassanandfriends]

Thank you very much sir for yuor explanation
