Give structural formula of ethylene. What type of bond is found in between carbon and hydrogen? Why is the bond between carbon and carbon weak in it?​

See explanation

Explanation:

The structure of ethylene is shown in the image attached. The two carbon atoms have a double covalent bond between them.

The two carbon atoms are sp2 hybridized. The bond between them is a covalent bond, there is one pi bond and one sigma bond between the carbon atoms. Between carbon and hydrogen, there are covalent bonds also. The covalent bonds are sigma bonds.

The pi bonds between carbon atoms is weaker than the sigma bonds between the carbon atoms. This is because, the side-by-side overlap the p orbitals in a pi bond is less effective than the end-to-end overlap of a sigma bond.
