Presentation Transcript

  1. Polarity of Molecules

  2. Determining the Polarity of a Molecule • Draw Lewis Structure Thanks to Mark Bishop of Preparatory Chem

  3. Determining the Polarity of a Molecule • Identify each bond as polar or non-polar. a. If no polar bonds, the molecule is nonpolar.

  4. Determining the Polarity of a Molecule • If there is one central atom • No lone pairs and all the bonds are identical, the molecule is nonpolar.

  5. Determining the Polarity of a Molecule • Draw a sketch of the molecule showing its molecular geometry. • Use arrows to depict the polarity of the bonds. Use longer arrows to show the relative polarities • If arrows are symmetrical, the molecule is nonpolar • All others, polar
