Is Scn Polar Or Nonpolar
So, Is SCN Polar or Nonpolar? SCN ion is polar because of the unequal electronegativity of Sulfur(2.58), carbon(2.55), and Nitrogen(3.04). The Nitrogen being higher electronegative pulls the bonded electron towards its side and gains a partial negative charge making SCN a polar molecule. Thiocyanate which is also known as rhodanide has the chemical formula as SCN-. Because of the negative charge intensity on the nitrogen, it acts as a base rather than likely to accept hydrogen atom....
