How do models help scientists predict the polarity of molecules? Explain your answer using what you know about molecular structure and provide an example of a molecule that contains polar bonds, but is nonpolar.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Models help scientists predict the polarity of molecules because the bond polarity should be determined that lies between the molecule atoms.

Models help scientists predict the polarity of molecules because the bond polarity should be determined that lies between the molecule atoms.

You can use the difference in electronegativity of two atoms to predict whether they make polar, nonpolar or ionic bonds. Water is a well-known example of a polar molecule.

The information with respect to the atom is as follows:

  • The bond that lies between the same atoms i.e. same elements should always be neutral.
  • The bond that lies between the atoms of the different elements should always be inequivalent electrically as one atom should be positively charged and the other one should be negatively charged.

How do you determine the polarity of a solution?

Simply mix the liquid with an equal part of water and allow the mixture to sit undisturbed. Examine the mixture after the liquids have sat together for a time. If they have not separated, but have formed a solution, the unknown liquid is polar. If there is a clear boundary between the two liquids, it is non-polar.
