Q. A molecule $(X)$ has (i) four sigma bonds formed by the overlap of $s p^{2}$ and $s$ orbitals (ii) one sigma bond formed by $s p^{2}$ and $s p^{2}$ orbitals and (iii) one $π$ bond formed by $p_{x}$ and $p_{z}$ orbitals. Which of the following is $X$ ?

$C_{2} H_{6}$

$C_{2} H_{3} Cl$

$C_{2} H_{2} C l_{2}$

$C_{2} H_{4}$

Structure of $C_{2} H_{4}$ is :

So, the compound $(X)$ is $C_{2} H_{4}$ .
