What is the total number of pi ( π ) bonds in CH₃C#CCH₃ ?

In CH₃C#CCH₃, the triple bond (C≡C) consists of 1 sigma and 2 pi bonds. There are no other multiple bonds. Total π bonds = 2. This follows from latest NCERT 2026-27 principle explaining the concept clearly for NEET students in simple steps as per rationalized syllabus.

How many sigma bonds are present in the C₂H₄ molecule?

C₂H₄ has a double bond (1 sigma, 1 pi) between carbons and 4 single bonds (4 sigma) to hydrogens. Total sigma bonds = 1 + 4 = 5. This follows from latest NCERT 2026-27 principle explaining the concept clearly for NEET students in simple steps as per rationalized syllabus.

What is the primary reason solids are far less compressible than gases?

The tight coupling between neighboring atoms in solids results in a much higher resistance to volume change compared to gases, where molecules are weakly coupled. As per NCERT, applying relevant law/formula with correct units and sign convention leads to Tight coupling between neighboring atoms. This satisfies dimensional consistency and physical conditions given, so option A is scientifically correct.

Which of the following fluorides has the highest ionic character?

Ionic character increases with larger cation size and lower polarizing power in group 2. BaF₂ (Ba²⁺, largest) has the highest ionic character among BeF₂, MgF₂, CaF₂, and BaF₂.
