Question

Angular shape of ozone molecule consists of

• A. 1 sigma and 2 pi-bonds
• B. 2 sigma and 2 pi-bonds
• C. 1 sigma and 1 pi-bond
• D. 2 sigma and 1 pi-bond

Hint:

For molecules like ozone with resonance structures, count sigma bonds individually but pi bonds collectively based on resonance. Always consider delocalization in calculating actual bond characteristics.
