Which of the following would have permanent dipple moment ?A. `BF_3`B. `SF_4`C. `SiF_4`D. `XeF_4`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`BF_3` is trigonal planar, `SiF_4` is tetrahedral, while `XeF_4` is square planar. All these molecules have zero dipole moment on account of symmetrical shapes. `SF_4` has seesaw shape which is not symmetrical and, hence, has a permanent dipole moment.
