The Molecule Which Has Zero Dipole Moment is (A) BF3 (B) NF3 (C) CiO2 (D) CH2Cl2

Answer: (A)

Explanation:

A dipole moment occurs when there is a charge separation in a system. As a result, they can occur in both ionic and covalent bonds. The difference in electronegativity between two chemically linked atoms causes dipole moments.

Therefore, the molecule that has a zero dipole moment is   BF3 .
