(b) Write the geometric structure for the CH2CI2 molecule and name the geometry.
(c) Determine if the CH2CI2 molecule has polar or nonpolar bonds using the
following electronegativity: C = 2.5, H = 2.1, CI = 3.0. Re-draw the geometric
structure below, but this time include partial charges and dipole arrows for any
polar bonds present. Justify your assignments for polar or nonpolar bonds.
A resident expert on electronegativity comes up to visit with you. He makes two claims (seen below) about electronegativity with relation to covalent bonding. Is the expert correct or can you refute him with your knowledge of electronegativity?
(a) If a diatomic molecule is made up of atoms X and Y, which have different electronegativities, the molecule must be polar.
(b) The farther two atoms are apart in a bond, the larger the dipole moment will be.
