When anions and cation, approach each other, the valence shell of anions are pulled towards
a cation, is known as polirisation and ability of the cation to polarize the anion is called as
polarizing power of cation. Due to polarization, sharing of electrons occurs between two
ions to some extent and bond shows some covalent character. Fajan’s suggested following
factors on which polarization depend.
(i) As the charge on cation or anion increases, polirisation increases
(ii) Size of cation decreases or size of anion increases, polirisation increases.
(iii) Cation with pseudo noble gas configuration shoes higher polarization power than that
with inert gas configuration.

The approximate shape of a molecule can often be predicted by using what is called the
valence-shell electron-pair pair repulsion (VSEPR) model. Electron in bonds and in lone
pairs can be though of an “Charge cloud” that repel one another and stay as far apart
possible, thus causing molecules to assume specific shapes.
The repulsive interactions of electron pairs decrease in order :
Lone pair – lone pair > Lone pair – Bond pair > Bond pair – Bond pair
These repulsions effect result in deviations from idealised shapes and alteration in bond

arising out of the difference in electronegativity of two atoms. This means that every bond
carries with it an electrical moment called the “bond moment”. The dipole moment of a

Between ionic and covalent bonds, there are large majority of bonds, in which the bonding
electrons are shared unequally between two atoms but are not completely transferred. such
bonds are said to be polar covalent bonds and the bond polarity is due to difference in
electronegativity, the ability of an atom in a molecule to attract the shared electrons in a
covalent bond.
The measure of net polarity is a quantity called the dipole moment, , which is defined as
the magnitude of the charge Q at either end of the molecular dipole times the distance r
between the charges : = Q * r. Molecular polarities give rise to some of the forces that occur
between molecules and these forces are of several different types including dipole-dipole
forces, London dispersion forces, and hydrogen bonds. All these intermolecular forces are
electrical in origin and result from the mutual attraction of unlike charges or the mutual
repulsion of like charges.
