Which of the following species is non-polar ?
Options
- Atrans-pent-2-ene
- Bcis-pent-2-ene
- Ccis-1-chloropropene
- DSF 6
Correct answer
D. SF 6
Step-by-step solution
SF 6 has octahedral geometry. So, its dipole moment μ = 0 . Others have vectorial addition of bond moments within the molecular geometry to give μ → > 0 for the entire species.
