Question

Which statement is correct regarding inductive effect?

(1) Electron displacement along a carbon chain and develops partial charges on atoms

(2) Complete transfer of one of the shared pair of electrons to one of the atoms joined

by a double bond.

(3) Implies transfer of lone pair of electrons from more electronegative atoms to the

less electronegative atom.

(4) 1 effect increases with increase in the distance​

Answer 1

Answer:

An inductive effect is an electronic effect due to the polarisation of bonds within a molecule or ion. This is typically due to an electronegativity difference between the atoms at either end of the bond. 

The more electronegative atom pulls the electrons in the bond towards itself creating some bond polarity.

Inductive effect decreases with increase in distance.

 

Answer 2

Answer:

option 1 is your correct answer

Explanation:

2) complete transfer of one of the shared pair of electron to one of the atom joined is known as electromeric effect

3) implies transfer of Sigma electron of C--X bond to more electronegative halogen atom

4) I effect decreases with increase in the distance
