- AThe electromeric effect is, temporary effect
- BHydrogen ion shows negative electromeric effect
- CThe organic compound shows electromeric effect in the presence of the reagent only.
- DElectromeric effect dominates over inductive effect

Correct answer: B
-
Recall the electromeric effect
The electromeric effect is the complete transfer of the shared pair of -electrons of a multiple bond to one of the bonded atoms, only in the presence of an attacking reagent. It is a temporary effect.
-
Check each statement
A: The electromeric effect is, temporary effect
This is correct because the electromeric effect exists only during the attack of a reagent and disappears when the reagent is removed.B: Hydrogen ion shows negative electromeric effect
This is incorrect.
A positive reagent like attracts the -electron pair towards itself. This corresponds to the positive electromeric effect ( effect), not negative electromeric effect.C: The organic compound shows electromeric effect in the presence of the reagent only.
This is correct by definition of the electromeric effect.D: Electromeric effect dominates over inductive effect
This is correct because electromeric effect involves complete transfer of -electrons and is stronger than the partial displacement seen in the inductive effect. -
Conclusion
The incorrect statement is:
-
Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer = B
Derived answer = B
Hence, they agree.
