*Methane contains 4 C-H bonds. The electronegativity difference between C an H = 2.55-2.2 = 0.3
If the difference is less than 0.4 then the bond is non polar. If difference is greater than 0.4 then the bond is polar. Since all bonds in methane are non polar the molecule is non polar.
Now if we convert methane to methyl chloride then one polar C-Cl bond arises[in which the electro negativity difference between Cl and C is (3.15-2.55) = 0.6] which makes the molecule polar.Thus conversion of methane to methyl chloride makes the molecule polar.

Decide whether each molecule or polyatomic ion is polar or nonpolar, If the molecule or polyatomic ion is polar, write the chemical symbol of the atom closest to the negative side. For example, if the molecule were HCl and you decided the hydrogen atom was closest to the negative side of the molecule, you'd enter "H" in the last column of the table.
For each molecule. predict, based upon structure, if the molecule is polar or nonpolar and can participate in hydrogen bonds. tertiary-butanol n-propanol methanol ethanol
The four bonds of carbon tetrachloride (CCI) are polar, but the molecule is nonpolar because the bond polarity is canceled by the symmetric tetrahedral shape. When other atoms substitute for some of the Cl atoms, the symmetry is broken and the molecule becomes polar. Use Figure 9.20 to rank the following molecules from the least polar to the most polar: CH2Br2, CF2Cl2, CH2F2, CH2Cl2, CBr4, CF2Br2. (Type your answer using the format NH4 for NH4.) CBr4 < CF2C12 x <...
