The correct Answer is:
To determine the number of molecules among the given list that have a non-zero dipole moment, we will analyze each molecule one by one based on their molecular geometry and the presence of polar bonds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Ozone (O₃)**: - O₃ has a bent structure due to the presence of a lone pair on the central oxygen atom. - The dipole moments from the O=O bonds do not cancel out because of the bent shape. - **Dipole Moment**: Non-zero. 2. **Sulfur Trioxide (SO₃)**: - SO₃ has a trigonal planar structure. The dipole moments from the S=O bonds cancel each other out. - **Dipole Moment**: Zero. 3. **Sulfur Tetrafluoride (SF₄)**: - SF₄ has a seesaw shape due to one lone pair on sulfur. The dipole moments do not cancel out completely. - **Dipole Moment**: Non-zero. 4. **Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF₆)**: - SF₆ has an octahedral structure. The dipole moments from the S-F bonds cancel each other out. - **Dipole Moment**: Zero. 5. **Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S)**: - H₂S has a bent shape due to the presence of lone pairs on sulfur. The dipole moments do not cancel out. - **Dipole Moment**: Non-zero. 6. **Carbon Disulfide (CS₂)**: - CS₂ has a linear structure. The dipole moments from the C=S bonds cancel each other out. - **Dipole Moment**: Zero. 7. **Sulfur Dioxide (SO₂)**: - SO₂ has a bent structure due to the presence of a lone pair on sulfur. The dipole moments do not cancel out. - **Dipole Moment**: Non-zero. 8. **Water (H₂O)**: - H₂O has a bent shape due to the two lone pairs on oxygen. The dipole moments do not cancel out. - **Dipole Moment**: Non-zero. 9. **Hydrogen Peroxide (H₂O₂)**: - H₂O₂ has a non-linear structure and the presence of lone pairs on the oxygen atoms leads to a net dipole moment. - **Dipole Moment**: Non-zero. ### Summary of Results: - Molecules with non-zero dipole moments: O₃, SF₄, H₂S, SO₂, H₂O, H₂O₂. - Total count of molecules with non-zero dipole moments: **6**. ### Final Answer: The number of molecules among the given list having a non-zero dipole moment is **6**. ---
