Question
Ethers show dipolar nature due to the presence of ______.
✓
Answer
- Central O atom
Ethers have general structural formula R-O-R'. Hence all of them have the C-O bond. We know that the C-O bond is polar due to the difference between the electronegativities of carbon and oxygen. Hence, ethers show dipolar nature.
