MCQ
Which of the following is a polar compound
  • $HF$
  • B
    $HCl$
  • C
    $HN{O_3}$
  • D
    ${H_2}S{O_4}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$HF$
(a) We know that greater the difference in electronegativity of two atoms forming a covalent bond. More is its polar nature.

In $HF$ there is a much difference in the electronegatives of hydrogen and flourine. Therefore $(HF)$ is a polar compound.
