Chapter 11, Problem 64P

1,1-Dichloroethylene ( C H 2 = C C l 2 ) is a starting material used to prepare the plastic packaging material Saran wrap. Your friend thinks that 1,1-dichloroethylene is a nonpolar molecule because the dipoles in the two C-Cl bonds cancel. Draw out the proper three-dimensional structure of 1,1-dichloroethylene, and then explain why your friend is correct or incorrect.

If you rotate the hydrogen atoms to a different position in a a model of C2H6 by turning about the central C—C bond, do you get different structural (or constitutional) isomers of C2H5Cl?
Compare the polarity of the C-Cl bond in (CH3)3C-Cl with the polarity of the Si-Cl bond in (CH3)3Si-Cl.
Your chemistry professor draws a number of molecules on the board: (1) CH4 ; (2) H2C=CH2 ; (3) H2C=C=CH2 ; and (4) H2C=C=C=CH2. You muse about all the molecules that chemists draw on a two-dimensional board and wonder which ones are actually planar, existing basically as they appear on the board, and which ones are not plane but rather three-dimensional. Answer ALL of the following questions. What are the specific orbital overlaps (i.e., sp3-sp3) that are in each of the molecules? What are the bond angles for each central atom in each molecule? Which molecules are planar and which are non-planar?
