Which of the following is an example of a molecule whose centre of mass of positive and negative charges coincide each other?(a) CO2(b) CO(c) CH3OH(d) NH3I got this question in my homework.My enquiry is from Dielectrics and Polarisation topic in division Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance of Physics – Class 12

Answer» CORRECT choice is (a) CO2

The explanation is: CO2 is amolecule in which the centre of mass of positive and NEGATIVE charges collide with each other and is called a non-polar molecule. They NORMALLY have zero dipole MOMENT. They have symmetrical shapes.
