Answer:
1. BF3 This is a trigonal planar molecule; the electron density is drawn into a cloud that circles the Boron, this is made nonpolar by the geometrically equivalent structure of the surrounding electronegative Fluorines.
2. H2O The 2 lone pairs of e- of Oxygen makes the O partially negative, the H’s, partially positive. Polar.
3. NF3 Lone pair on Nitrogen overwhelmed by the 3 incredibly electronegative Fluorines. Polar
4. CH3Br The “Soft Ion” of Bromine is negative; it is electronegative. Polar.
5. SO2 the lone pairs of Oxygen, at approximately 119°-120° angles to one another will form a reasonance structure; there will be more lone pairs about the Oxygen than the Sulfur; the Sulfur will be partially positive compared to the oxygens. Polar.
