The fluoride for which the dipole moment is not equal to zero, is :

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

As per VSEPR Theory

XeF 4 ⇒ H ⇒ 1 2 8 + 4 = sp 3 d 2 6

Geometry square planar with 2 L.P.
μ → = 0 (symmetry)


CF 4 ⇒ H ⇒ 1 2 4 + 4 = sp 3 4

Tetrahedral geometry
μ → = 0 (symmetry)


PF 5 ⇒ H = 1 2 5 + 5 = sp 3 d 5

Trigonal bipyramidal
μ → = 0 (Symmetry)


SF 4 ⇒ H = 1 2 6 + 4 = sp 3 d 5
With one L.P see saw geometry
μ → ≠ 0 has a value



μ > 0 due to two S - F bonds in equatorial plane.
