Question

Dipole moment of a molecule having trigonal planar geometry

Answer 1

Molecules in which the A-X bonds are symmetrical about the central atom (such as the linear, trigonal planar, and tetrahedral geometries) have a zerodipole moment, and are nonpolar.Molecules where the X atoms are not symmetrical (such as the bent andtrigonal pyramidal geometries) canhave a dipole moment.
