Which contains both polar and non polar bonds? a) NH4Cl b) HCN C) H2O2 D) HClO2
please give proper method and solution not just option a or b plzzzz

I think it is H2O2 because

O-H bond is polar due to electronegativity difference between O and H.

O-H bond is non-polar.

Now,

Let us consider the remaining examples

NH4Cl: all the bonds are polar  .

HCN: Both the C-H and the C-N bonds are polar .

HClo2 is polar..


Hope this helps!


poonam85ttovn20g: can u plzz elaborate
siddhartharao77: I have already explained in the above. What is the correct answer?
poonam85ttovn20g: but u didn't gave reason why the other 3 options aren't the answer..
siddhartharao77: Ohkk...Alright. Let us consider the remaining examples

NH4Cl: all the bonds are polar

HCN: Both the C-H and the C-N bonds are polar

HClo2 is polar.
poonam85ttovn20g: okay thanks!

Answer:

Let's consider the Lewis dot structure for visual aide:

H-O–O-H

With a lone pair of electrons on each Oxygen atom. Because of the difference in electronegativity between Hydrogen and Oxygen, the single bonds between them are polar, with a partial negative charge on oxygen and partial positive on Hydrogen. Since Oxygen has the same electronegativity as itself, there is no difference in polarity across the bond, so it is nonpolar.
