Q26 / 180 · KCET 2019 · Chemistry
Which of the following possess net dipole moment?
- A\( \mathrm{BeCl}_{2} \)
- B\( \mathrm{CO}_{2} \)
- Correct answerC\( \mathrm{SO}_{2} \)
- D\( B F_{3} \)
Solution
(C)

\( \mathrm{BeCl}_{2} \) and \( \mathrm{CO}_{2} \) have linear geometry and \( \mathrm{BF}_{3} \) has triangular planar geometry with zero dipole moment.

\( \mathrm{BeCl}_{2} \) and \( \mathrm{CO}_{2} \) have linear geometry and \( \mathrm{BF}_{3} \) has triangular planar geometry with zero dipole moment.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
