Question

(
9) Which of the following would be expected
to have a dipole moment of zero
(a) so2 (b) sif4 (c) Of2 (d) co2​

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Due to linear and symmetrical structure it has zero dipole.

Answer 2

Answer:

Dipole moment:- The polarity of covalent bond can be conveniently measured in terms of physical quantity called dipole moment.

(i) (Refer to Image 1)

(ii) (Refer to Image 2)

(iii) (Refer to Image 3)

(iv) (Refer to Image 4)

⟶ Above molecules have dipole moment zero. Because dipoles of the bond cancel each other.
