Ques. 1JEE Main 2024, 27 January (Evening Shift)

The number of non-polar molecules from the following is . HF, H2O, SO2, H2, CO2, CH4, NH3, HCl, CHCl3, BF3

Answer

4

Solution

Non-polar ⇒ identical atoms, or polar bonds arranged symmetrically so that bond dipoles cancel ( = 0)

H2: identical atoms ✓

CO2 (linear), BF3 (trigonal planar), CH4 (tetrahedral): dipoles cancel ✓

HF, HCl (polar bond); H2O, SO2 (bent); NH3 (pyramidal); CHCl3 (unsymmetrical) ⇒ polar ✗

∴ Non-polar molecules = 4

Answer: 4
