Correct option (C) 9 σ + 9 π
Explanation:
We know that,
In 1 single bond = 1 σ bond,
In 1 double bond = 1 σ bond + 1 π bond
In 1 triple bond + 1 σ bond + 2 π bonds
The given compound has 4 single bonds which is equal to 4 σ bond.
Also, the given compound has 1 double bond which is equal to 1 σ bond and 1 π bond.
In the given compound there are 4 triple bonds which mean 4 σ bond and 8 π bond. Therefore, the given compound has 9 σ and 9 π bonds.
