Out of `CHCl_3, CH_4 and SF_4` the molecules having regular geometry are

A

`CHCl_3` only

B

`CHCl_3 and SF_4`

C

`CH_4` only

D

`CH_4 and SF_4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Regular geometry of `CH_4` is attributed to zero dipole moment `(mu = 0)` and absence of lone pair on carbon atom.
