Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which of the given molecules has a non-zero dipole moment, we will analyze each molecule based on its shape and the electronegativity of the atoms involved. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze CO₂ (Carbon Dioxide)**: - **Shape**: Linear - **Electronegativity**: Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon. - **Dipole Moment**: The dipole moments from each oxygen (δ-) towards carbon (δ+) are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. Therefore, they cancel each other out. ...
