Question

Polarization of electrons in acrolein may be written
as:
δ- δ+
(a) CH₂ = CH-CH=O
δ+ δ-
(b) CH₂ = CH-CH=O
δ+ δ-
(c) CH₂ = CH-CH=O
δ- δ+
(d) CH₂ = CH-CH=O

Answer 1

part c is the correct answer....

hope this answer will be helpful ♥️♥️

Answer 2

Polarization of electrons in acrolein may be written  as

    δ+                        δ-

(c) CH₂ = CH - CH = O

Explanation:

• The electronegativity of oxygen is more than the electronegativity of carbon atom.
• The electronegativity is a tendency to attract shared pair of electron towards it.
• So, the oxygen attracts more electrons than carbon atoms.
• Thus, the polarization of oxygen is -δ and the polarization of carbon is +δ.
