Formation of covalent bonds in compounds exhibits (a) wave nature of electron (b) particle nature of electron (c) both wave and particle nature of electron (d) none of these

Answer: (a). A covalent bond forms by overlap of atomic orbitals, i.e. overlap of electron waves. Orbitals and their overlap describe the wave nature of the electron. So the answer is (a) wave nature of electron.

Formation of covalent bonds in compounds exhibits

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

A covalent bond forms by overlap of atomic orbitals, i.e. overlap of electron waves.
Orbitals and their overlap describe the wave nature of the electron.
So the answer is (a) wave nature of electron.
