    There is only one s orbital in any given energy level. Sharing the S orbital creates only one bond. To make a double bond the p bonds must be used. The sharing of p orbitals creates pi bonds. For example N2 has three bonds. The triple bond requires the sharing of the one S orbital and two P orbitals . The S orbitals overlap directly forming a covalent bond. The two sets of p orbitals overlap side by side creating the pi bonds, which are also covalent bonds.

    i understand very well n2 but i stuck in formation of co2 for pi bonds

    what type of doubt you face in formation of Co2?

    eduncle-logo-app

    in co2 2sp hybrid orbital make 2sigma bond with o and 2p orbital make 2pie bond with o so bond lenght should be different

    yes they have double bond... with increase in bond order bond length decreases
