Workshop 15 Data and Observations - Part 3 cis-Dichloroethene trans-Dichloroethene Cl CI CI H C=C C=C H H H CI (CI's on same side of the molecule) (Cl's on opposite sides of the molecule) Dipole Moment: 1.98 D Dipole Moment: Why do these dipole moment results make sense? since the clis on opposite sides of the roleale; it crosses at making trans-Dichlorestore nonpoler, C3H12 Isomers CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3 0.070 Dipole Moment: CH3 1 CH3-CH-CH2-CH3 Dipole Moment: 0.12 o D Dipole Moment: CH3 CH3-C-CH3 CH3 Why are the dipole moments of the first two isomers so much lower than any of the previous examples done that did not result in a dipole moment of zero? Does the dipole moment of the third isomer make sense?
