7 Terms

1
New cards

amide (-CONH2) and carboxylic acid (-COOH)

#1 Most polar due to strong hydrogen bonding (both donating and accepting) and high dipole moments

2
New cards

Alcohol (–OH)

#2 Highly polar with strong hydrogen bonding via the hydroxyl group.

3
New cards

Amine (–NH₂)

#3 Polar and capable of hydrogen bonding

4
New cards

Ketone / Aldehyde (C=O)

#4 Polar carbonyl group that accepts hydrogen bonds but cannot donate them.

5
New cards

Ester (–COOR)

#5 Moderately polar, less polar than ketones

6
New cards

Ether (–O–)

#6 Weakly polar due to a single C–O bond with steric hindrance

7
New cards

Alkane / Alkyl Halide (–H, –R)

#7 Nonpolar or least polar, relying only on weak dispersion forces
