For AB bond if percent ionic character is plotted against electro nehativity difference `(X_A-X_B)`, the shape of the curve would look like

A

(A)

B

(B)

C

(C)

D

(D)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Percent ionic character is given by
% of ionic character ` = 16(X_A- X_B) + 3.5 (X_A - X_B)^2`
From the above relation, it is clear that as soon as `(X_A - X_B)` increases, % ionic character will also increase. Therefore, curve C show a correct path.
