Answer to Problem 9.1VP

Solution

The given compounds can be distinguished by using their dipole moments.

Explanation of Solution

Explanation

Given

The structures of two isomers of S2F2 having different orientations of S and F .

The dipole moment of the molecule is the sum of individual dipole moments coming from all the bonds present in the molecule. The change in orientation of the atoms in the molecule changes the measure of charge accommodate by the individual bond which results in the different dipole moments of the molecule. Since, the given isomers have direction of bonds and measure of charge different on the two isomers. Therefore, they can be distinguished by using its dipole moments.

Conclusion

The given compounds can be distinguished by using their dipole moments.
