Use the chart to determine which atom in the carbon–chlorine bond is assigned the delta negative charge. carbon atom chlorine atom neither atom both atoms

The delta negative charge is present on Chlorine atom.

Explanation:

Carbon-chlorine bond is a polar bond.

A polar bond is defined as the bond which is present between the atoms of different electronegativity values.

An atom which attracts the shared pair of electron more towards itself is known as electronegative atom and has high value of electronegativity (it attains a partial negative charge). An atom which does not attract the shared pair of electron towards itself is known as electropositive atom and has low value of electronegativity( it attains a partial positive charge).

Electronegativity of Chlorine = 3.16

Electronegativity of Carbon = 2.55

As, electronegativity of chlorine is more than the electronegativity of carbon. Hence, the delta negative charge will be present on Chlorine atom.
