NEET · Chemistry · STD 11 - 4. Chemical bonding and molecular structure
Which of the following molecules is non-polar in nature?
- A \(\mathrm{POCl}_{3}\)
- B \(\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{O}\)
- C \(\mathrm{SbCl}_{5}\)
- D \(\mathrm{NO}_{2}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{SbCl}_{5}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Net vector summation of bond moments will be zero so \(SbCl_5\) is a non-polar molecule.
