    1) The HCN molecule is linear and polar, with a polar C-N bond due to the difference in electronegativity between carbon (2.55) and nitrogen (3.04). 2) The OF2 molecule is bent and polar, with a polar O-F bond due to the difference in electronegativity between oxygen (3.44) and fluorine (3.98). 3) The CCl4 molecule has a tetrahedral geometry and is non-polar, even though the C-Cl bonds are polar, because the bond dipoles cancel each other out due to the symmetrical shape.

    ACTIVITY 3: APPLY ME!


    Performance Task #2
    1. Show the Lewis Structure and geometric sketch for HCN. The electronegativities of H, C,
    and N are 2.20, 2.55, and 3.04. Is the molecule Polar? Support your answer. Note that
    molecules with one polar bond are always polar, even if the other is not polar.
    -HCN
    Between C and N ∆EN = 0.49 polar bond
    Between H and C ∆EN = 0.35 non-polar bond

    2.20 2.55 3.04


    Symmetry is linear; therefore, it is polar molecule.
    2. Decide whether the OF2 is polar molecule. The electronegativities of oxygen and
    fluorine,3.44 and 3.98 respectively. Support to your answer.

    -OF 2 Symmetry-Symmetrical

    ∆EN = 0.54 polar bond, molecular


    shape; bent polar molecule

    3. The molecular geometry of CCl4 is tetrahedral. Is it a polar molecule? Support your answer.

    -CCl4

    Even though the C-Cl bond is polar,


    their symmetry is tetrahedral
    which makes the molecule non-
    polar.
