Question

Which is having non zero dipole moment?

• A. $H_{2}O$
• B. Pytene
• C. Chloroform
• D. ethene

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

$H_{2}O$

water (H2O) has a oxygen atom at the top of a triangular structure while two hydrogen atoms take the place of the base sides. Here also the dipole bonds are equal in magnitude but not opposing each other. So, it has non-zero dipole moment.
