Among the following, the most polar molecule is :
Options
- AAlCl 3
- BCCl 4
- CSeCl 6
- DAsCl 3
Correct answer
D. AsCl 3
Step-by-step solution
AlCl 3 non - polar (trigonal planar molecule with no lone pair of electrons) CCl 4 non - polar (Tetrahedral molecule with no lone pair of electrons) SeCl 6 non - polar (Octahedral molecule with no lone pair of electrons) AsCl 3 polar (pyramidal molecule with one lone pair of electrons)
