Solution
The correct option is BCO2(g) The expression CO2 can be used to designate a linear nonpoplar molecule that contains polar bonds. O=C=O is linear in structure as C atom is sp hybdridized. C=O bonds are polar but individual C=O bond dipoles cancel each other. Due to this, the molecule is non polar.
