Predidt the direction and the relative value of the dipole moment of the following bond: C-Cl A. C ← CL electronegativity difference < 0.5
B. C ← CL electronegativity difference > 0.5
C. C → Cl electronegativity difference < 0.5
D. C → Cl electronegativity difference > 0.5

D. C → Cl electronegativity difference > 0.5

Explanation:

The electro negativity of an atom in a compound refers to its ability to attract the electrons of a bond towards itself.

On the Pauling's scale, carbon has an electro negativity value of 2.55 while that of chlorine is 3.16. The difference in electro negativity between the both atoms is about 0.61.

The dipole is aslways directed towards the more electronegative atom. Hence the direction is ; C → Cl

plasma is the state of matter where the substance is ionized and has no definite shape or volume. the fact of being ionized makes the substance a good electrical conductor.
