Which of the following is a polar molecule ?

A

`BfF_(3)`

B

`SF_(4)`

C

`SiF_(4)`

D

`XeF_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`SF_(4)` has a distorted geometry due to presence of a
lone pair of electons and
hence is polar . All other molecules are symmertical
and have zero net dipole moment .
