Dipole moment is shown by...

Dipole moment is shown by

A

cis-1, 2-dichloroethene

B

trans-1, 2-dichloroethene

C

trans-2, 3-dichloro-2 pentene

D

Both (a) and (c)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Dipole moment is a vector quantity, hence dipole moment of a symmetrical molecule is zero.


`:. ` (a) and (c), both show dipole moment.
