Chapter 26, Problem 26.4P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason for the opposite direction of the dipole moment of pyrrole and pyridine is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Pyrrole is a five-membered cyclic aromatic ring contains one nitrogen atom instead of a carbon atom. Pyrrolidine is a five-membered cyclic saturated ring contains one nitrogen atom instead of a carbon atom. The dipole moment is used to measure the polarity of the bond in the molecule. It is defined as the product of the separation of charges and its magnitude. It is represented as shown below.

μ=δ(magnitudeofcharge)×d(distance)

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The reason as to why pyrrole and furan have opposite direction of dipole moment is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Pyrrole is a five-membered cyclic aromatic ring contains one nitrogen atom instead of a carbon atom. Similarly, furan is a five-membered cyclic aromatic ring contains one oxygen atom instead of a carbon atom. The dipole moment is used to measure the polarity of the bond in the molecule. It is defined as the product of the separation of charges and its magnitude. It is represented as shown below.

μ=δ(magnitudeofcharge)×d(distance)

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

Whether the dipole moment of 3,4dichloropyrrole is greater or lesser than pyrrole is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The dipole moment is used to measure the polarity of the bond in the molecule. It is defined as the product of the separation of charges and its magnitude. It is represented as shown below.

μ=δ(magnitudeofcharge)×d(distance)
