Part A
The PH3 molecule is polar. Does this offer experimental proof that the molecule cannot be planar? Explain.
The molecule is nonplanar. Thus, the PâH bond dipoles do not cancel making the molecule polar. The molecule is nonplanar. Thus, the PâH bond dipoles cancel making the molecule polar. The molecule is planar. Thus, the PâH bond dipoles cancel making the molecule polar. The molecule is planar. Thus, the PâH bond dipoles do not cancel making the molecule polar.
Part B
It turns out that ozone, O3, has a small dipole moment. How is this possible, given that all the atoms are the same?
The trigonal planar eâ domain geometry of the central O atom is the reason for the dipole moment in O3. The sp2 hybridization of the central O atom is the reason for the dipole moment in O3. The lone pair of electrons of the central O atom is the source of the dipole moment in O3. The bent molecular geometry of the central O atom is the reason for the dipole moment in O3.
