Answer:
True; When one side of a molecule is electronegative (δ-) and the other side of the
molecule is electropositive (δ+), it is said to have a dipole moment.
Explanation:
A dipole moment exists in a molecule as a result of differences in the electronegativity values between the atoms of the elements involved in the chemical bonding.
When a strogly electronegative atom such as oxygen or chlorine is chemically bonded to a less electronegative or an electropositive atom such as hydrogen, there is an uneven sharing of the electrons involved in the bonding. The more electronegative atoms tends to draw the shared electrons mostly to themselves. This induces a partially negative charge (δ-) on them while leaving the electropositive atoms with a partially positive charge (δ+).
Water is an example of a molecule having a dipole moment. The oxygen atoms are more electronegative than hydrogen and as such draw the shared electrons to themselves more, inducing a partial positive charge (δ+) on the hydrogen atoms while they themselves develop a partial negative charge (δ-).

(C) neon (atomic number 10)
Explanation:
The atom that is chemically inert is Neon with an atomic number of 10.
An atom is chemically inert if it does not willingly take part in chemical reaction.
Atoms takes part in chemical reactions in order to attain a stable configuration as seen in the noble gases.
In the noble gases every enable level is completely filled with the appropriate number of electrons.
- The noble gases are He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe
- These elements do not react with others.
- From the given option, Neon is a noble gas and therefore inert.
