AI Generated Solution

To solve the question, we will analyze each compound step by step, drawing their structures and determining whether they are polar or non-polar. ### (a) CH₄ (Methane) 1. **Determine the Valence Electrons**: Carbon (C) has 4 valence electrons, and each Hydrogen (H) has 1 valence electron. Therefore, CH₄ has a total of 4 + (1×4) = 8 valence electrons. 2. **Draw the Lewis Structure**: Carbon is the central atom, and it forms four single covalent bonds with four hydrogen atoms. The structure is: ``` ...
