← ScienceWhen molten NaCl is electrolyzed, which outcome occurs regarding the bonds?
A)Covalent network strength decreases
B)Metallic character drastically reduces
C)Ionic character inherently diminishes✓
D)Covalent bonds briefly form initially
💡 Explanation
Electrolysis separates Na+ and Cl- ions, and therefore the ionic character diminishes because electron transfer occurs, rather than any ionic bonds remaining. No covalent bonds form; because sodium becomes metallic therefore B, A, D are not the principal effect.
