Question

Which of the following molecule has highest dipole moment ? (A) H2S (B) CO2 (C) CCl4 (D) BF3

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Presence of two lone pairs on the sulphur atom, makes the geometry of H2S molecule, irregular. While all the other molecules exhibit regular geometry and zero dipole moment.
