@Sridhar : Why a for 1 st one ???
@Manmay : I got the same ans as u but answer given matches with sridar's
1)a because
dipole moment in a benzene ring is directly proportional to cosθ2 where θ is the angle between thetwo functional groups. In this case θ is the angle between the two chlorine groups. we know θpara> θmeta>θortho. there fore cosθpara<cosθmeta <cosθortho. Hence the order of dipole moments will be
III>II>IV>I
I will be least because there is no polar group on the benzene ring.
.
doubt is, in IV and I
coz in IV there must be 0 dipole moment becoz the Cl atoms are present in opposite direction will cancel the dipole moments leading to less dipole moment
but in I there is C-C bond hence no dipole moment isn't it???
explain!!
tHere is no chance of option A to be correct for first question as least dipole moment is of p-dichlorobenzene. dipole moment=0.
so i think answer is B. OR MAY BE D BUT CANNOT BE A OR C
