Which of the following is a polar moleule ?A. `SF_4`B. `SiF_4`C. `XeF_4`D. `BF_3`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Only `SF_4` has an unsymmetrical shape-seesaw. Therefore, it has a net dipole moment. While the rest of the molecules have symmetrical shapes and, hence, zero net dipole moment: `SiF_4` (tetrahedral), `XeF_4` (square planar), and `BF_3` (trigonal planar).
