Polar molecules are the molecules:
Polar molecules are the molecules:
Options
- AHaving zero dipole moment.
- BAcquire a dipole moment only in the presence of electric field due to displacement of charges.
- CAcquire a dipole moment only when magnetic field is absent.
- DHaving a permanent electric dipole moment.
Correct answer
D. Having a permanent electric dipole moment.
Step-by-step solution
A polar molecule is a molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative. Therefore, these molecules have permanent electric dipole moment.
