Sodium benzoate: Polarity; Functions and Applications
Sodium benzoate is a polar chemical. This is due to the polar covalent bond between the carbon and oxygen atoms in the carbonyl group (-CO) and the carbon and oxygen atoms in the carboxyl group (-COO-
Jan 4,2024 API2-Naphthol: Polarity; Solubility and Uses
2-Naphthol is a polar molecule. Since naphthol contains hydroxyl groups, it is a very polar molecule, and the oxygen atom attracts the electron density to itself through bonds.
Jan 4,2024 APIThe chemical property and Lewis structure of Camphor

Jan 4,2024 APIFerric oxide: Polarity and Application
Fe2O3 is an ionic compound. The electronegativity difference between iron and oxygen atoms is 1.6, which corresponds to the electronegativity difference of a polar covalent bond.
Jan 4,2024 APIWhy is AlCl3 a Nonpolar molecule?
AlCl3 is a nonpolar molecule because each Al-Cl bond is directed at an angle of 120° to each other in a plane; hence, canceling the dipole moment generated along these bonds is easy.
