Which of the following molecules is non-polar?

Question

Team JKExamLibrary · Accepted Answer

CO₂ is a linear molecule (O=C=O). Although the C=O bonds are polar, the molecule is symmetric, and the dipole moments of the two bonds are equal and opposite, canceling each other out. Thus, the net dipole moment is zero, making it non-polar. HCl, H₂O, and NH₃ are polar.
