According to valence bond theory, a pi bond between two atoms would result from

	(a)	overlap of a p orbital of one atom and a p orbital of the other atom, with both p orbitals perpendicular to the internuclear axis
	(b)	overlap of a p orbital of one atom and a p orbital of the other atom, with both p orbitals oriented along the internuclear axis.
	(c)	the overlap of an s orbital of one atom and a p orbital of the other atom.
	(d)	the overlap of an sp2 orbital of one atom and an sp2 orbital of the other atom.
	(e)	the overlap of two s orbitals.
