Q. The permanent displacement of electron through a chain involving only $\sigma$-bonds is called

Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques

Solution:

The permanent displacement of electron through a chain involving only $\sigma$-bonds is called inductive effect. It involves the electron displacement along the chain of saturated carbon atoms due to the presence of a polar covalent bond at one end of the chain.
