Question

Re-sketch the diazene molecule and label all bond dipoles (with the arrow pointing from the most electronegative atom to the least electronegative atom).

Show using vector sums that this geometric isomer of diazene is non-polar.

Let's consider the molecule diazene, HN=NH, which is an important substrate
for nitrogenase (the enzyme responsible for reducing N2 to NH3).
