How to check the given molecules are polar or non polar :

If the electronegativity of the two bonded atoms are different then the bond is polar. Although, some molecules contain polar bonds, the molecule may be non-polar. If the polarity of all the bonds present in the molecule are cancel each other then molecule is non-polar.

 

In the given options,

SO2  is polar because the dipole moments on the O do not cancel.

PCl3  is polar because the P-Cl bonds do not cancel out.

CH2Cl2  polar because the C-Cl bonds do not cancel.

 

Hence, in brief, Polar molecules are molecules with net dipole due to the presence of partial positive and partial negative charge.

For example, water is a polar molecule that has partial positive and partial negative charge on it. CO2 is a non polar compound.

 

Therefore, all the given options SO2, CH2Cl2 and PCl3 are Polar molecules.

missing-number-puzzle1558420078.jpg image

A) 9 B) 6
C) 5 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 4

Explanation:

Let the value to be find be 'x'.

 
Sum of individual column value = 14

 
C1 = 7 + 2 + 1 + 4 = 14
C2 = 3 + 8 + 1 + 2 = 14
C3 = 6 + 5 + 2 + 1 = 14

 

C4 = 2 + 4 + 4 + x = 14

x = 14 - 10

x = 4

 

Hence, the missing number is '4'.
