<h3>Further explanation</h3>mol C (MW=12 g/mol)
mol H(MW=1 g/mol) :
mol F(MW=19 g/mol)
mol ratio of C : H : O =1.52 : 0.51 : 0.89=3 : 1 : 1.75=12 : 4 : 7
Empirical formula : C₁₂H₄F₇
(Empirical formula)n=molecular formula
( C₁₂H₄F₇)n=562 g/mol
(12.12+4.1+7.19)n=562
(281)n=562⇒ n =2
Molecular formula : C₂₄H₈F₁₄
Answer : The molecule is a polar molecule.
Explanation :
Polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is asymmetrical then the molecule is polar.
Non-polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is symmetrical then the molecule is non-polar.
The given molecule is,
The electronegativities of oxygen and fluorine are different. The molecular geometry of is bent. As, Fluorine is more elctronegative than the oxygen. So, the arrows putting towards the more electronegative element i.e, fluorine. These arrows do not balance each other. Due to this, the asymmetrical arrangement of these bonds makes the molecule polar.
Hence, the given molecule is polar.
