Question

Based on the information in the table, which of the following arranges the bonds in order of decreasing polarity?

Answer 1

Polarity is the chemical property based on the electric charge and orientation of the poles. Al−O>H−Br>As−S is arranged in decreasing order of polarity. Thus, option d is correct.

What is polarity?

Polarity is a chemical property of the distribution of the electrical charges over their respective atom in the molecule joined by the bonds. The relation between the polarity and the difference in electronegativity is directly proportional.

The electronegativity difference between the elements are:

• Al−O = 1.8
• H−Br = 0.8
• As−S = 0.4

As the electronegativity difference between Al−O = 1.8 is the highest it will have the highest polarity followed by H−Br = 0.8, and As−S = 0.4, with the lowest polarity.

Therefore, option D. Al−O>H−Br>As−S is arranged in decreasing order of polarity.
