If intermolecular axis is taken to be in z-direction then, pz orbital form σ-bond. px and py form π-bond.

Q. If internuclear axis is taken to be in $z$ -direction then, which of the following orbital does form $σ$ -bond? Choose the correct option.

$p_{x}$ -orbitals

$p_{y}$ -orbitals

$p_{z} -$ orbitals

None of the above

If intermolecular axis is taken to be in $z$ -direction then, $p_{z}$ orbital form $σ$ -bond. $p_{x}$ and $p_{y}$ form $π$ -bond.
