Questions and Answers

What is the key factor that determines whether a molecule is polar or non-polar?

  • The electronegativity difference between the atoms
  • The number of bonds in the central atom
  • The symmetry of the molecular structure (correct)
  • The presence of unshared electron pairs

What is the range of electronegativity difference values for polar molecules?

  • 0 - 0.4
  • There is no specific range

Which of the following statements is true for non-polar molecules?

  • Their dipole moments are asymmetrical
  • The bonds on the central atom involve different atoms
  • They have unshared electron pairs
