Pi vs Sigma Bonds

[Frederick Keith_4C]

Why are sigma bonds stronger than pi bonds in general??
I read something about overlapping and stuff but it still isn't making sense in my head as to why that makes it harder to break.
If someone could explain the topic to me as if I were a child, that would be absolutely phenomenal.

The orbitals involved in forming sigma bonds overlap more than the orbitals involved in forming pi bonds. This increased overlapping of orbitals makes sigma bonds relatively stronger because it creates shorter and therefore stronger bonds.

[Kevin Liu 1J]

Sigma and pi bonds both involve the overlap of atomic orbitals in different ways, but to put it simply, pi bonds are weaker due to the fact that there is less overlap present normally than there is in sigma bonds.

Because the overlapping area of sigma bond is much bigger than pi bonds

[Megan Cao 1I]

sigma bonds have a greater overlapping area than pi bond, therefore their bonds are greater than pi bonds.

[Jingyao Chen 4H]

Adding on, the overlap means the overlap in the possible regions that electrons will be there. Therefore, the greater the over lap, the more electrons there are for sharing/interacting, resulting in a strong bond.

Because sigma bonds have greater overlap than pi bonds do.

Are sigma single bonds, and pi double bonds? I am confused on how to count those bonds?

[Verity Lai 2K]

All bonds have at a sigma bond, which is just a single bond. Any bonds after the first one are pi bonds, such as double or triple bonds.

A single bond is a sigma bond. A double bond has a sigma bond and a pi bond. A triple bond has a sigma bond and two pi bonds.

On test 2, we were asked to label sigma and pi bonds. I only knew that sigma bonds were for single bonds and double bonds had pi bonds. Can someone explain how we were supposed to label them?
