Front

Is this molecule polar?

Back

No

Front

Is this molecule polar?

Back

Yes, the dipole moment (+-->) would point to the purple area that represents the unbonded pair of electrons.

Back

Tetrahedral

Front

Choose the correct shape for this molecule: Trigonal planar, Trigonal pyramidal, Tetrahedral, Linear

Back
