Question

13 Which type of chemical bond is weaker, forming as a consequence of shifts in electrical charge? Covalent bonds Isotopic bonds lonic bonds Dipole bonds

Answer 1

Answer: Dipole bonds

Step-by-step explanation:

Covalent bond is a strong formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is a strong bond formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

Dipole bond is a weak bond which is present in molecules which have a permanent dipole i.e. between polar molecules. The more electronegative element withdraws the electron towards itself forming a partial negative charge and the lesser electronegative element thus bear a partial positive charge.
