Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 63
Question: The values of electronegativity of atoms A and B are 1.20 and 4.0 respectively. The percentage of ionic character of A - B bond is
Options:
A) 50 %
B) 43 %
C) 55.3 %
D) 72.24%
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
We know that ionic characters $ =16,[E_{A}-E_{B}]+3.5\times {{[E_{A}-E_{B}]}^{2}} $ or ionic characters = 72.24%
