If elements A and B were to share electrons, and if the electrons of A were o's and the electrons of B were x's, then if the Lewis structure involved AooxxB, then I would say that there was a pi-bond between A and B. However, if the structure were only AoxB, then I would say sigma bond.
Reason: Pi-bonds are second-bonds in double-bonds or triple-bonds. The first o and the first x share electrons as if two persons shook hands with one another across a space. The second o and x overlap top-and-bottom as if two persons shook hands with a high-five and a low-five and the same time.

You have pi bond if 2 atoms have 4 common electrons.

it relies upon on the hybridization of the carbon atom. no remember if that's sp2 or sp you have pi bonds. it is likewise possible to work out the noumber of atoms binded to a carbon atoms. if there are 4 atoms you have merely sigma bonds, if there are 3 atoms you have a million pi bond

if it contains double bonds it has pi bonds.
