La, Draw a picture of each molecule, including all H's and lone pairs. Show correct geometry at any oxygen atoms
b. Classify each molecular as polar or nonpolar.
c, Which of the above molecules is the most polar, and which is the least polar? Explain,
d. For any polar molecules you drew, draw a second molecule of the substance, lined up so that it can be attracted to
the other molecule of the same substance, and show ô+/ ô- symbols,
e. Attractive Forces between molecules are often called "cohesive forces" or "intermolecular forces," [f intermolecular
attractive forces are particularly strong, does this lead to relatively high or low boiling point?
f, Propanone,2-propanol, and butane have boiling points (in'C) of, 56,82, and -1, respectively
How does polarity affect intermolecular forces and boiling points?
g.
Is water polar or nonpol ar?
