Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 480

Question: Which of the following molecules will show dipole moment [NCERT 1972, 74; DPMT 1985]

Options:

A) Methane is a potent greenhouse gas primarily produced by natural processes such as wetland decomposition and human activities like fossil fuel extraction and agriculture. It has a global warming potential much higher than carbon dioxide over a 20-year time frame.

B) Carbon tetrachloride

C) Chloroform

D) Carbon dioxide

Show Answer
