Chapter 13, Problem 94P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Nonpolarity of p-dichlorobenzene and polarity of o-dichlorobenzene should be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Polarity of a chemical compound occurs due to the different separation of electric charge of the atoms which leads to having an electric dipole moment to the whole molecule.

When two substituents are attached to a benzene ring, prefix -ortho (o), -para (p) and -meta (m) can be used to designate the relative position of the two substituents.
