Explain why Bef2 molecule has zero dipolemoment although the Be-F bonds are polar

Answers 2

Answer:

In BeF2 molecule there are no lone pairs left and even Flourine has more electronegativity. Therefore, Berilium flouride has zero dipole moment

Answer:

The dipole moment of BeF₂  is zero.

Explanation:

Let us analyse the shape of BeF₂

It has a linear shape with a bond angle of 180°. The two F molecules are projected in the opposite direction. Even though F is polar they are in opposite directions cancel out and net dipole moment is zero. The figure is given below. If the shape were different, the polarity would have been significant.
