The correct statement among the following is:
1. | When a covalent bond is formed, transfer of electrons takes place |
2. | Pure H2O does not contain any ion |
3. | A bond is formed when attractive forces overcome repulsive forces |
4. | HF is less polar than HBr |
1. | 2 | 2. | 3 |
3. | 4 | 4. | 1 |
Statement I: | Since electronegativity of F > H, so dipole moment of \(\text{NF}_3\) > \(\text{NH}_3.\) |
Statement II: | The lone pair dipole in \(\text{NH}_3\) is not in the direction of the resultant bond dipole, while in the case of \(\text{NF}_3\), the lone pair dipole is in the direction of the resultant bond dipole. |
1. | Statement I is false but Statement II is true. |
2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are false. |
3. | Both Statement I and Statement II are true. |
4. | Statement I is true but Statement II is false. |
