Solution

Dipole moment is a vector quantity. Hence if can be broken down into a vertical and horizontal component.
The numbe of molecules having non-zero dipole moment is -
NH3-The dipole moment of NH3 is μ=1.46D
PCl2F3, CH2Cl2- The dipole moment of CH2Cl2 is μ=1.59D and 1,4-dichloro-2,3-dimethyl benzene(C8H8Cl2)
