Homework Answers

Answer #1

1. The dipole moment of hydrogen halides decreases from top to bottom i.e., from HF to HI due to the decrease in the electronegativity of halogens from F to I. So, the increasing order of dipole moment is HI < HCl < HF.

2. Electron geometry = Tetrahedral

Molecular geometry = Trigonal pyramidal

Polarity: Polar

3. Electron geometry = Tetrahedral

Molecular geometry = Bent angular

Polarity: Polar

4. As the electeonegativity of O is more than S which again is more than H, the decreasing order of polarity and dipole moment is CH3OH > CH3SH > CH4.

5. Electron geometry = Trigonal Planar

Molecular gometry = Bent angular

6. Electeon geometry = Tetrahedral

Molecular geometry = Bent angular

Polarity = Polar

7. Electron geometry = Trigonal Planar

Molecular geometry = Trigonal Planar

Polarity = Non polar
