Which of the following molecules is a polar molecule?

MCQ

Solution

Explanation:

A polar molecule is one that has polar bonds and has a dipole moment that is greater than zero. 

The bonds in H2O are inclined at an angle, resulting in a non-zero net dipole moment. As a result, H2O is a polar molecule, and the dipole moment is balanced in all other circumstances, therefore the net moment is zero.
