A molecule is considered polar if it has an overall dipole moment. The dipole moment of the compound depends if the compound has polar bonds and if the geometry of the compound will permit a net dipole moment. Bond dipole moments occur due to differences in electronegativity....
What is the difference is between a polar covalent compound and a nonpolar covalent compound? What is the difference between electron affinity and ionization energy? What is the difference between sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate? How does electronegativity differ from electron gain enthalpy? How...
Question: Why isHFweaker acid thanHCl,HBrandHI? Acid Strength of HF, HCl, HBr, and HI. Hydracids composed of Hydrogen and Halogens are acidic due to the highly polarised covalent bond between the electronegative halogen atom with the relatively electropositive hydrogen atom. However the acid ...
