Question

which of the following is an application of inductive effect a)bond length b) dipole moment c)strength of carboxylic acids d)all of the mentioned​

Answer 1

Answer:

D) All of the mentioned are the inductive effect

Answer 2

Inductive effect can be used to determine:

1. Bond length
2. Dipole moment
3. Strength of carboxylic acid.

Bond length

• I effect increases the ionic character of the bond thus affecting the bond length.

Dipole moment

• As a result of the I effect a permanent dipole is created in the compound, giving rise to the dipole moment.

Strength of Carboxylic acid

• -I effect increases the stability of the group.
• + effect destabilises the group.

Thus all three are the applications of the  Inductive Effect, so option d is correct.
