| Q. |
Ethylene is a molecule. |
| A. | polar |
| B. | ionic |
| C. | covalent |
| D. | nonpolar |
| Answer» D. nonpolar | |
|
Explanation: Ethylene (C2H4) is a nonpolar molecule. This is because, unlike a polar molecule, it has an even distribution of electrical charges. Since, the double bond is between two carbon atoms, there is no difference in the electro negativity. This is why, the shared pair of electrons come lie in between those to carbon atoms. As a result, ethylene is a non-polar and linear molecule. |
