Passage / Comprehension

Hybrid orbitals generally form σ bond whereas unhybrid orbitals form π bond. σ bonds are considered to be stronger than π bond. Covalent compounds may have some ionic characters due to polarity. Molecules having zero dipole moment are known as non-polar molecules.

How many of the following are non-polar?

$H_{2} CCH_{2}$ , $PCl_{3} F_{2}$ ,

$NO_{2}$ , $IF_{5}$ , C₃O₂

Benzene , SO₃ , p-hydroxyphenol, Borazine, transplatin

Answer:

8.00

Solution:

Non-polar molecules have zero net dipole moment due to symmetry or non-polar bonds.

H₂CCH₂, PCl₃F₂, C₃O₂, Benzene, SO₃ , , Borazine and transplatin are all non-polar.
