Molecular Shape And Polarity
Why must a molecule's shape be considered when determining its overall polarity?
A
Symmetrical molecules are always nonpolar.
B
A molecule may exhibit different shapes depending on its polarity.
C
The molecular shape reveals more about the distribution of charge than the Lewis dot structure.
D
Nonpolar molecules have dipoles that do not cancel out, which can only be inferred by examining the molecule's shape.
