Which of the following statements about molecules is correct?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A compound that contains only polar bonds can be nonpolar if the polar bonds are arranged symmetrically around the central atom, resulting in a cancellation of dipole moments. This is known as a nonpolar molecule. Conversely, a compound can have nonpolar bonds and still be polar if the arrangement of polar bonds creates an overall dipole moment, such as in the case of a bent geometry. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect.
