Polarity refers to the pull of electrons. Some elements like Fluorine and Oxygen pull electrons closer to them in their bonds (electronegativity), meaning they don't share them equally. So if they pull them closer, there is polarity in the molecule because there's a pull of electrons between atoms.

Answer:

3rd option. 1–butanamine

Explanation:

To name the compound above, the following must be observed:

1. Locate the functional group in the chain. In this case the functional group is amine.

2. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound. In this case, the longest chain has 4 carbon i.e butane.

3. Since the functional group is amine, the parent name becomes butanamine i.e replacing the –e at the end in butane with –amine

4. Indicate the position of the functional group in the chain. In this case the functional group is at carbon 1

5. Name the compound by putting the above together.

The name of the compound is:

1–butanamine or butan–1–amine
