Expert Solution
Introduction.
  • The polarity of a molecule is dependent on the electronegativity difference of atoms and geometry of molecule. 

 

  • In SF4 , the S-F bond is polar but the geometry of molecule is tetrahedral and thus the resultant dipole moment is zero, So, SF4 is non polar. 

 

  • The O-H bond is alcohols is a polar bond which ,makes the alcohol molecule polar. 

 

  • Ester molecules are polar due to electronegativity difference between C and O. 
Part 14

Polar molecules among the given molecules are: Ethanol and Methyl ethanoate. 

Hence, the correct option is: 

D) B and C
