The D Orbital

Once the d orbital is introduced, what kind of bond does it make?

As it is an unhybridized orbital, you will often see it involved in pi bond formation.

so when you reach a d-orbital does it go before or after the previous s-orbital?

I believe both dsp3 or sp3d are okay but sp3d is preferred?
Here is the answer:

I think pi bonds? Does anyone else have an explanation as to why?
