Answer:
B. The bonds are polar and the molecule is nonpolar.
Explanation:
Each bond in the molecule is polar, as indicated by the partial charges on the atoms of the molecule. However, the four atoms are arranged symmetrically around the central atom. In this case, the effects of the partial charges on opposite sides cancel out. As a result, the molecule as a whole is nonpolar. If exposed to an electric field, the molecule will not orient itself in any particular direction.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
ethane weaker than ethyne because it is not as unsaturated as ethyne
Ethene is longer because it need to bond with two more hydrogen atom
Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
An oxidizing agent is a specie which accepts electrons and gets reduced in a chemical reaction.
In the given reaction,
Oxidation state of Al changes from 0 to +3, therefore, it is reducing agent. Whereas oxidation state of Br is changing from -2 to -3 this means Br is gaining electrons, therefore, it is an oxidizing agent.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement is the oxidizing agent because its oxidation number decreases.
