Question

Which of the following molecules has no dipole moment? (A) CH 3 Cl (B) CHCl 3 (C) CH 2 Cl 2 (D) CCl 4

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

A molecule which has a symmetrical geometry will have no dipole moment, as the magnitude of all the bond moments cancel each other. The structure of compounds given in options are as follows <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="image" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/img/question/chemistry/df862b7c8ea08fafeb165df2206fccd5-.png" /> Thus, CCl 4 has no dipole moment.
