Which of the following molecules is(are) polar? For each polar molecule indicate the direction of polarity—that is, which is the negative end, and which is the positive end of the molecule.
- (a) BeCl2
- (b) HBF2
- (c) CH3Cl
- (d) SO3
(a)
Interpretation: Check whether the given molecule is polar or not. If the molecule is polar then the direction of polarity has to be indicated.
Concept Introduction:
Polar molecules are the molecules having a positive and negative end and so there will be a charge separation.
A polar molecule is a molecule where the polar bonds are asymmetrically arranged (the dipoles do not cancel)
A nonpolar molecule is a molecule with no polar bonds or a molecule where the polar bonds are symmetrically arranged.
In polar molecule the charge separation occurred with respect to the difference in electronegativity of atoms in the molecule.
Direction of dipole moment in a molecule is can be represented as follows,
Different types of molecules and their geometry in accordance with the VSEPR theory are mentioned below,

- N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) is a suspected carcinogen that can form via reactions between dimethylamine (DMA) and monochloramine (NH2Cl). The relevant elementary reactions and the corresponding rate constants are as shown below. Reaction Rate constant (M¹s¹) DMA + NH2Cl = DMCA + NH3 k =1.4×10-1, kr = 5.83×10-3 1.28×10-3 DMA + NH2Cl → UDMH UDMH + NH2Cl → NDMA -> 1.11×10-1 If the initial concentrations of DMA and NH2Cl are given, you should be able to predict the concentrations of all species at any given reaction time.

(10 pts) (atomic weight: Na 23, O 16, C1 35.5) (b) The pH in the pool after the NaOCl addition is 8.67. To improve disinfection, you want at least 90% of the TOTOCI to be in the form of HOCI (pKa 7.53). Assuming that HOCI/OCI is the only weak acid/base group in solution, what volume (L) of 10 N HCl must be added to achieve the goal?
