Answer:
helium
Explanation:
Although this applies to all noble gases, consider helium. There are two electrons moving around the nucleus. The movement of those electrons is symmetrical and during a defined amount of time, the atom is not polarised. However, the momentary positions of those electrons can polarise the atom. This can happen when both electrons are relatively close, on the same one side of the atom. In this case a momentary dipole is formed, since there is separation of two charges, nucleus being positive and the pair of electrons being the negative pole.
