Solution

The correct option is B P: HF and Q: $O_{2}$
Polar molecules have a significant difference in electronegativity among their constituent atoms. Therefore HCl and HF are the only options for compound P.

$N_{2}$ contains a triple bond due to the presence of 5 valance electrons in the outermost shell of nitrogen and $O_{2}$ forms a double bond due to the presence of 6 valance electrons.
