The inductive effect can be best described as:
a) the conjugation of σ-bonding orbital with the adjacent π-orbital.
b) the ability of atom or group to cause bond polarization

–CH3
In which of the following hybridisation of carbon the -I effect is the greatest
sp
sp2
sp3
Which of the following is an incorrect statement about inductive effect?
-I effect of a group weakens the O-H bond in -COOH & favours ionisation of a carboxylic acid
It operates through space.
Aniline is a weaker base than ammonia due to -I effect shown by the phenyl group.
Alkyl groups are good examples of positive inductive effect.
Which of the following is more basic than aniline?
p-nitro aniline
triphenylamine
diphenylamine
benzylamine
In mesomeric effect the following electrons will delocalise:
p
π
s
σ
Resonance forms are in equilibrium with each other.
True
False
Find the correct statement among these
It is permanent effect
It involves the delocalisation of σ e-
The no. of paired/unpaired e- can be unequal at times
Noone of the above are correct
Why phenol is more acidic than other alcohol ?
Phenoxide ion is more stable due to resonance
Phenoxide has higher steric effect
Alkyl alcohols are having infinite canonical forms
Alkyl alcohols show steric effect and nullify all other effect
