P orbitals forming sigma bonds?
How is it possible for p-orbitals to overlap and form sigma bonds? I read that F2 forms a sigma bond between the 2p orbitals.

Re: P orbitals forming sigma bonds?
Sigma bonds can be formed through s-s axial overlap, s-p axial overlap, or a p-p axial overlap. Hope the picture I attached helps!
