Which consequence results when extreme pressure overcomes NaCl's lattice?

A)Increased ionic mobility develops flow
B)Covalent character enhances electron sharing
C)Metallic bonding enables orbital delocalization
D)Hydrogen bonding causes molecular aggregation

💡 Explanation

Increased pressure induces increased electron density between ions causing polarization. This leads to increased **covalent character** because of distortion from purely ionic bonds, therefore sharing results in covalent bonding rather than ionic separation or hydrogen bonding.
