Write the formula of grignard reagent and state the polar character?

Answer 1

A Grignard reagent or Grignard compound is a chemical compound with the generic formula R−Mg−X, where X is a halogen and R is an organic group, normally an alkyl or aryl. Two typical examples are methylmagnesium chloride Cl−Mg−CH3 and phenylmagnesium bromide (C6H5)−Mg−Br. They are a subclass of the organomagnesium compounds.

Answer 2

The general formula of a Grignard reagent is R-Mg-X, where R is an alkyl or aryl group and X is a halogen (e.g. Cl, Br, I). Grignard reagents are polar in nature due to the difference in electronegativity between the carbon and magnesium atoms. The carbon atom has a partial negative charge and the magnesium atom has a partial positive charge.
