    Which of the following fluoride of xenon has zero dipole moment?

    A) \[Xe{{F}_{3}}\]                    

    B) \[Xe{{F}_{4}}\]

    C) \[Xe{{F}_{6}}\]                    

    D) \[Xe{{F}_{2}}\]   

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    In\[Xe{{F}_{4}},\]the four fluorine atoms are present at the corners of a square plane and two lone pairs are present at axial positions. All the individual bond moments in such an arrangement gets ruled out, as a result, the molecule has zero dipole moment. Hence, the correct option is [b].
