Explanation / Answer

Q57.

Polarity --> Tendency of a molecule to form poles, and, in overall, a positive charged pole + negativeley charged pole. Therefore the substance is called "polar". This poles are created by electron lone pairs dsitributions in the geometry of the structure.

a)

Carbon has an electronegativity value of 2.5

Oxygen has a 3.5 value

Fluorine has 4.0

Nitrogen 3.0

Therefore, the most polar bondings are given by the HIGHEST difference in electronegativity

F-C = 4.0-2.5 = 1.5 (most polar)

O-C = 3.5-2.5 = 1.0 (second most polar)

N-C = 3.0-2.5 = 0.5 (least polar)

b.

Similar to a, find electronegativity values

Cl = 3.0

I = 2.5

Br = 2.8

Then,

Cl > Br > I; and this makes sense since the smaller the halogen, the stronger the electronegativity.

c.

Similar case as in A), but now we compare vs. H

H = 2.1 electronegativity value

so

C-H = 2.5-2.1 = 0.4 (least polar)

O-H = 3.5-2.1 = 1.0 (most polar)

N-H = 3.0-2.1 = 0.5 (second most polar)

d.

Once again, compare electronegativity differences

C-H = 2.5-2.1 = 0.4 (second most polar)

C-C = 2.5-2.5 (not even polar, this is nonpolar)

C-N = 3.0-2.5 = 0.5 (most polar)
