Question

Correct set of species which have zero dipole moment
  1. CO2BCl3
  2. COCl2BCl3
  3. CH2Cl2BCl3
  4. CO2CH2Cl2BCl3

Open in App
Solution

The correct option is A CO2BCl3
CO2 is linear and CCl4 is trigonal planar hence net polarity of both molecules is zero. On the other hand, COCl2 and CH2Cl2 are polar molecules and hence will have a non-zero dipole moment.
