Question

Among N2O and NO2 which has higher polarity? Explain​

Answer 1

Polarity arises from a difference in electronegativity. both NO2 and N2O has same polarity difference so it will be decided on their structure. NO2 is bent structure whereas N2O has linear structure.so dipole moment is more in NO2.so NO2 is more polar. Polarity arises from a difference in electronegativity.

Answer 2

Answer:

Polarity arises from a difference in electronegativity. ... As we know that NO2 is bent structure whereas N2O is linear, so the dipole moment is more in NO2 and hence it is more polar.
