Is CH2Br2 polar?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking whether the molecule CH2Br2 (dibromomethane) has a polar nature or not. To determine this, we need to analyze the molecular structure and the electronegativity of the constituent atoms (carbon, hydrogen, and bromine).

Answer

CH2Br2 is polar

The final answer is that CH2Br2 is a polar molecule.

Answer for screen readers

The final answer is that CH2Br2 is a polar molecule.

More Information

Dibromomethane (CH2Br2) has polar bonds due to the difference in electronegativity between carbon, hydrogen, and bromine. The geometry of the molecule causes the dipole moments to not cancel out, making the molecule polar.
