NEET Chemistry Molecular Orbital Theory Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Nonpolar Covalent Bond | (i) Shared electron pair displaced towards one atom |
| (b) Polar Covalent Bond | (ii) Equal sharing of electron pair |
| (c) Sigma Bond | (iii) Formed by end-to-end overlap |
| (d) Pi Bond | (iv) Formed by side-to-side overlap |
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-iii, b-i, c-ii, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
In a nonpolar covalent bond, the electron pair is shared equally between two identical atoms, while in a polar covalent bond, the shared electron pair is displaced towards the more electronegative atom, creating a dipole moment. Sigma bonds are formed by end-to-end overlaps, and pi bonds by side-to-side overlaps.
