Which outcome results when asymmetrical charge distribution occurs in molecules?

A)Net dipole moment is established
B)London dispersion forces decrease
C)Molecules exhibit metallic bonding
D)Covalent bond strength is maximized

💡 Explanation

A net dipole moment results because unequal electronegativity causes uneven electron sharing, creating partial charges within the molecule. Dipole-dipole interactions become significant; therefore, a larger dipole moment occurs, rather than dispersion decreasing, as these effects strengthen.
