Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Differences in the dipole moments of molecules
Concept Introduction:
The unequal distribution of shared electrons caused by differences in electronegativity between bonded atoms is called bond polarity.
Dipole moment: It is the measure of the charge separation that is describes the polar in the bond between the two atoms.
Electronegativity: It is defined as the capacity of the atom to abstract the pair of electrons towards itself results to have high negative charge.
(b)
Interpretation:
Differences in the dipole moments of molecules
Concept Introduction:
Refer to (a).
