When an electron withdrawing or electron releasing group is attached to carbon chain, polarity is induced on the carbon atom and on the substituent attach to it. This permanent polarity is due electron displacement due to difference in electronegativities this is called inductive effect or I effect. The inducitve effect depends in the electronegativity of the substituent. The inductive effect is broadly classified as (i) negative inductive effect or -I effect. (ii) positive inductive effect or +I effect. Which of the following statements is correct about inductive effect ?

1.	When an electron withdrawing or electron releasing group is attached to carbon chain, polarity is induced on the carbon atom and on the substituent attach to it. This permanent polarity is due electron displacement due to difference in electronegativities this is called inductive effect or I effect. The inducitve effect depends in the electronegativity of the substituent. The inductive effect is broadly classified as (i) negative inductive effect or -I effect. (ii) positive inductive effect or +I effect. Which of the following statements is correct about inductive effect ?
Answer» Polarization of a `SIGMA-` BOND is called inductive effect. Inductive effect is transmitted through `sigma-` bonds Inductive EFFECTIVE is transmitted through `PI-` bond Both a and b. Solution :Inductive effect
