MCQ
Ethers show dipolar nature due to the presence of $........$
  • A
    Central $C$ atom
  • ✓
    Central $O$ atom
  • C
    Central $N$ atom
  • D
    None of these
✓

Answer

Correct option: B.
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.
