Concept Introduction:
Molecules that have uneven electrons distributed among the bonded atoms are termed as polar molecules. In polar molecules, bonded atoms have difference in their electronegativity.
Polarity of the molecule depends on the dipole moment. Dipole moment is directly related to bond length and bond length depends upon the electronegativity of the atom. Therefore, atom with more electronegativity attracts electrons towards it that in turn shortens the bond length of the molecule. With decrease in bond length, dipole moment of the molecule decreases. As dipole moment decreases, molecule becomes less polar. Therefore, as electronegativity increases, polarity of the molecule decreases.

- Arrange the following acids in the increasing order of their solubility in water: p-ClC6H4COOH, CH3COOH, CH3(CH2)3COOH. Explain why their order became like that?arrow_forwardAt the end of 2012, global population was about 7.0 billionpeople. What mass of glucose in kg would be needed toprovide 1500 Cal/person/day of nourishment to the globalpopulation for one year? Assume that glucose is metabolizedentirely to CO2(g) and H2O(l) according to the followingthermochemical equation:C6H12O6(s) + 6 O2(g)----->6 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(l)ΔH° = -2803 kJarrow_forwardStearic acid and linoleic acid have 18 carbon atoms each. Complete the sentences to explain why stearic acid melts at 69 °C but linoleic acid melts at -5 °C. Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences. Reset Help weaker The molecules of a fatty acid (for example, fit closer together than the less molecules of a fatty acid (for example, lower Therefore, when comparing the two, there are attractions between saturated fatty acid linoleic acid molecules, which require energy to break them apart and form liquid. Thus, saturated stronger fatty acid molecules have melting points. higher stearic acid more similar saturated polyunsaturatedarrow_forward
