1. [BCl₃ and BrCl₃]

2. [NH₃ and ${\mathrm{NO}}_3^{-}$]

3. [NF₃ and BF₃]

What is the dominant intermolecular force on bond that must be overcome in converting liquid CH₃OH to a gas?

(a) Hydrogen bonding

(b) Dipole-dipole interaction

(c) Covalent bonds

(d) London dispersion force

The correct order of electronegativity of hybrid orbitals of carbon is:

1. sp > sp² < sp³             

2. sp > sp² > sp³

3. sp < sp² > sp³             

4. sp < sp² < sp³

${\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}$ has a net dipole moment while
\(BeF_2\) has zero dipole moment because :

1. F is more electronegative than oxygen.

2. Be is more electronegative than oxygen. 

3. ${\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}$ $$ molecule is linear and \(BeF_2\) is bent.

4. ${\mathrm{BeF}}_2$ molecule is linear and ${\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}$ is bent.

(e) Triple Methylene     

options are as follows :        

(a) (iv) and (v)                                     (b) (i) and (iii) 

(c) (i) and (ii)                                       (d) (ii) (iv), (v)
