Electron nuclear attraction
Electron sharing
Electron transfer
Electrostatic attraction
Hybridisation involves
addition of an electron pair
mixing up of atomic orbitals
removal of an electron pair
separation of orbitals
Which of the following compounds in liquid state does not have hydrogen bonding?

C6H6
The Lewis structure for O3 molecule is given below. The correct formal charges on oxygen atoms labelled 1, 2, 3 are respectively.
-1, 0, +1
+1, 0, -1
+1, -1, 0
0, +1, -1
Inoic bonds are usually formed by combination of elements with
high ionisation potential and low electron affinity
low ionisation potential and high electron affinity
high ionisation potential and high electron affinity
low ionisation potential and low electron affinity
If a molecule MX3 has zero dipole moment, the sigma bonding orbital used by M (At. no. 13) are
pure p
sp- hybridised
sp2- hybridised
sp3- hybridised
C.
sp2- hybridised
If dipole moment of the molecule is zero, this will imply that the molecule is symmetrical or it has no lone pairs of electrons.
Electronic configuration of 13M - 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p1
Structure of MX3 is X-MX-X
So, number of molecular hybridisation = 3. Hence,sp2 hybrid orbitals are used.
