What term is used to describe the electron displacement caused by the influence of an atom or a substituent group, resulting in permanent polarization of a bond?
Options
- AResonance effect
- BElectromeric effect
- CInductive effect
- DPolarizability effect
Correct answer
C. Inductive effect
Step-by-step solution
Electron displacements due to the influence of an atom or a substituent group present in the molecule cause permanent polarization of the bond. Inductive effect and resonance effects are examples of this type of electron displacements.
