Which of the following molecules does not exhibit dipole moment?
(i) \(\mathrm{CCl}_4\)
(ii) \(\mathrm{CO}_2\)
(iii) \(\mathrm{NH}_3\)
(iv) \(\mathrm{CHCl}_3\)
(v) \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\)
(vi) \(\mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{CH}_3\)

  1. A (ii), (v), (iv)
  2. B (i), (iii), (vi)
  3. C (i), (ii)
  4. D (iii), (iv), (vi)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) (i), (ii)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Dipole moments cancel out reach other in \(\mathrm{CCl}_4\) and \(\mathrm{CO}_2\) resulting in net dipole moment as zero because these are symmetrical structures.
