Chemistry - CHEMICAL BONDING Question with Solution | TestHub

(A) Covalent bonds are directional → True, because covalent bonds are formed by specific orbital overlap in a definite direction.

(B) Ionic bonds are non-directional → True, because electrostatic attraction between ions acts in all directions.

(C) A polar bond is formed between atoms having the same electronegativity → False, equal electronegativity forms a non-polar bond.

(D) Presence of polar bonds in a polyatomic molecule suggests zero dipole moment → False, dipole moment depends on molecular geometry; polar bonds may result in zero or non-zero dipole moment.

Correct Answer: (C), (D)
