Electric Dipole

Out of the following molecules the one which represents the polar molecule is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

$N_2$ , $CO_2$ (linear) and $H_2$ are symmetric: centres of charge coincide, so they are non-polar.
$H_2O$ (diagram (a)) is bent, so the centres do not coincide: polar.
Diagram (a) is option (b). So the answer is (b) (a).
