Which statement best describes the polarity of ch2cl2? view available hint(s) which statement best describes the polarity of ? the molecule is always polar. the molecule is always nonpolar. depending on the arrangement of outer atoms, this molecule could be polar or nonpolar.

Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The compound is tetrahedral in nature. But due to difference in electronegativity of both carbon and chlorine, chlorine is more electronegative than carbon.

Whereas carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen atom.

As a result, there will be individual bond moment which is unequal and leads to net dipole moment into the molecule.

Hence, the compound will always be polar in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement molecule is always polar, describes the polarity of .
