Answer to Question #175762 in General Chemistry for Mursheda

Question

As you prepare to write your report for this lab experiment, consider these questions and answer them in your discussion section as part of your overall analysis. 1. Based on the work you did to construct the three-dimensional representations of your molecules in labs 7 – 9 in SCC201: a. Which molecule did you expect to have the largest dipole moment and why? b. Which molecule(s) did you expect to have the smallest dipole moment, and why? c. Did the dipole moments you calculated in this lab experiment match or conflict with your expectations in a. and b.?

Answer 1

( a ) Dipole moment is the product of charge and lenth .

Dipole moment interrelate the polarity . Highest polarity compound have highest Dipole moment .

( b ) Generally homoatomic molecules have less polarity So Lowest Dipole moment .

( C ) DIPOLE MOMENT CAN BE CALCULATED BY PRODUCT OF CHARGE AND LENGTH .
