Identify a polar covalent bond in 3-buten-1-ol.
A) carbon-carbon single bond
B) carbon-carbon single bond.
C) oxygen-hydrogen bond.
D) carbon-hydrogen bond

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The oxygen-hydrogen bond in 3-buten-1-ol is polar covalent because oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen, causing a partial negative charge on the oxygen and a partial positive charge on the hydrogen. This polarity makes 3-buten-1-ol a polar molecule overall.
