Q5 / 90 · JEE Main 2024 (27 Jan Shift 2) · Chemistry
The number of non-polar molecules from the following is
Correct answer: 4
Solution
The molecules which have perfect geometry and no lone pairs are zero dipole moment molecules. Those molecules termed as non-polar molecules. Amongst the given compounds, are non polar molecules.
has two lone pairs and two bond pairs. has two sigma bond pairs and one lone pair. has net dipole moment because the bond moments do not cancel with each other. have one lone pair and three bond pairs. In bond moment is the dipole moment. Hence, all these molecules have some net dipole moment.
The non-polar molecules are and
Hence, the correct answer is 4.
