Question

Explain Dipole moment of chlorethane is higher than of Chlorobenzene. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

As a result the electronegativity difference decreases between the chlorine and the carbon which makes the dipole moment of chlorobenzene lesser than the dipole moment of chloroethane.

Answer 2

Answer:

Electronegativity of sp3 carbon in chloroethane is more than electronegativity of sp2 carbon in chlorobenzene. As a result the electronegativity difference decreases between the chlorine and the carbon which makes the dipole moment of chlorobenzene lesser than the dipole moment of chloroethane
