On March 27, 1964, Southeastern Alaska experienced a
magnitude 9.2 earthquake. The earthquake caused a major tectonic tsunami, which
hit the Southeastern coast of Alaska, the Pacific Coast of British Columbia,
and the west coast of the United States. During the earthquake, there were also
large landslides and submarine slumps.
Answer : Option C) The polar bonds are oriented in opposite direction.
Explanation : A molecule of carbon dioxide
contains two polar covalent bonds. This molecule is non-polar because the polar bonds are oriented in the opposite direction.
In order to be a polar molecule, carbon dioxide must have both a slightly negative side and a slightly positive side in its molecule. The orientation of the lone pairs of electrons present on each oxygen atom cancels each other, making the molecule non polar.
