AIEEE 2003 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 230 English Explanation 1
Here μ\mu total = μ\mu 1 + μ\mu 2 ≠\ne 0
AIEEE 2003 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 230 English Explanation 2
μ\mu total = μ\mu 1 −- μ\mu 2 = 0
AIEEE 2003 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 230 English Explanation 3
μ\mu total = μ\mu 1 + μ\mu 2 ≠\ne 0
AIEEE 2003 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 230 English Explanation 4
μ\mu 1 + μ\mu 2 + μ\mu 3 = μ\mu 4

    μ\mu total = 0

In NO2 and O3 have permanent dipole moment as both of them are not symmetric molecule.

In CO2 and SiF4 each individual bond c = O and S- −- F have dipole moment but because of symmetric structure individual dipole moment get's cancelled.
