Question

co2 and h2o are triatomic molecule but has different dipole moment why
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Although both CO2 and H2O are triatomic molecules, the shape of H2O molecule is bent While that of CO2 is linear.It is because water has been a bent structure in which two O-H bonds are oriented at an angle of 104.5° and do not cancel the dipole moments of each other.

hope this helps u dude
