alleryElectronegativity helps in predicting the nature of the:
AColour of a salt
BWeight of an atom
CShape of a crystal
DForce in a bond
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Force in a bond
1. Though not measurable, the idea is still useful.
2. It tells how electrons are shared between atoms.
3. So it predicts the nature of the bonding force.
