In chemistry, pi bonds (π bonds) are covalent chemical bonds where two lobes of one involved electron orbital overlap two lobes of the other involved electron orbital. Only one of the orbital's nodal planes passes through both of the involved nuclei.
A pi bond is weaker than a sigma bond because pi bonds have less overlap between the orbitals of the bonding atoms compared to sigma bonds. This results in pi bonds being easier to break in chemical reactions.
Each nitrogen molecule contains three sigma bonds (which include one pi bond) and one pi bond. So, nitrogen molecules contain one pi bond.
C6H8 has eight pi bonds. This can be determined by calculating the number of pi electrons in the molecule, which is equal to the number of pi bonds. Each double bond contributes two pi electrons, and each triple bond contributes four pi electrons.
A double bond contains 2 pi electrons.
CO2 contains a pi bond between the carbon and oxygen atoms. CHCl3 contains a pi bond between the carbon and chlorine atoms. AsI3 does not contain a pi bond as it consists of single bonds. BeF2 also does not contain a pi bond as it forms only ionic bonds.
Pi bond is present in double bonds.Sigma bond forms a single bond.

There are 6 sigma bonds and 2 pi bonds in the structure of HOOC-COOH (oxalic acid). Each single bond represents a sigma bond, and each double bond consists of one sigma bond and one pi bond.
In a chlorine molecule (Cl2), there is one sigma bond and one pi bond. The sigma bond is formed by the head-on overlap of atomic orbitals, while the pi bond is formed by the sideways overlap of p orbitals.
there are 2 pi bonds and 1 sigma bond in propyne (alkynes)
