Which among the following is NOT a polar molecular solid?
- A \(\mathrm{CH}_{4}\)
- B \(\mathrm{SO}_{2}\)
- C HCl
- D \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{~S}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\mathrm{CH}_{4}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Methane has symmetrical tetrahedral structure hence dipole moment is zero. Therefore it is non-polar.
