MCQ
Pauling's electronegativity values for elements are useful in predicting
- ✓Polarity of bonds in molecules
- BPosition of elements in electrochemical series
- CCo-ordination number
- DDipole moment of various molecules
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Polarity of bonds in molecules
a
Pauling introduced the electronegativity concept. He introduced the idea that the ionic character of a bond varies with the difference in electronegativity. A large difference in electronegativity leads to a bond with high degree of polar character, I.e. the bond is predominantly ionic or vice versa.
