Chemistry Question on Chemical bonding and molecular structure

Which of the following molecules has zero dipole moment?

A

BeCl2BeC{{l}_{2}}

B

HClHCl

C

NH3N{{H}_{3}}

D

H2O{{H}_{2}}O

Answer

BeCl2BeC{{l}_{2}}

Explanation

Solution

BeCl2\text{BeC}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}} has symmetrical linear structure, hence, it has zero net dipole moment. ClBeClCl-Be-Cl μD=0{{\mu }_{D}}=0
