B.substitute an iodine (I) for the hydrogen (H)

C.substitute a bromine (Br) for the hydrogen (H)

Answer 1

Q-

The CHBr3 is a slightly polar molecule. What atom substitution could be performed to make the molecule non-polar?

A. substitute a hydrogen (H) for a bromine (Br)

B.substitute an iodine (I) for the hydrogen (H)

C.substitute a bromine (Br) for the hydrogen (H)

If we substitute ''BV'' atom in the place ''H''. The molecule becomes shape of is tetrahedral which is symmetrical in shape. All the dipole moments are cancelled out each other as they are symmetrically arranged.

Option(C) is the correct answer

In there is net dipole moment two br atoms have greater force than two hydrogen atoms. So, there is net dipole moment

Option (A) is incorrect.
