Waste Management's Aerobic-Anaerobic Bioreactor* is designed to accelerate waste degradation by combining attributes of the aerobic and anaerobic bioreactors. The objective of the sequential aerobic-anaerobic treatment is to cause the rapid biodegradation of food and other easily degradable waste in the aerobic stage in order to reduce the production of organic acids in the anaerobic stage resulting in the earlier onset of methanogenesis. In this system the uppermost lift or layer of waste is aerated, while the lift immediately below it receives liquids. Landfill gas is extracted from each lift below the lift receiving liquids. Horizontal wells that are installed in each lift during landfill construction are used convey the air, liquids, and landfill gas. The principle advantage of the hybrid approach is that it combines the operational simplicity of the anaerobic process with the treatment efficiency of the aerobic process. Added benefits include an expanded potential for destruction of volatile organic compounds in the waste mass. (*US Patent 6,283,676 B1)</span>

Answer:
B) Symmetrical and nonpolar
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is H-C≡C-H.
Each C atom has <em>two</em> electron regions, so VSEPR theory predicts a <em>linear molecular geometry</em> (see image below).
The molecule is symmetrical, because the green line divides the molecule into two halves that are mirror images of each other.
The C-H bonds are slightly polar, because C is more electronegative than H (µ ≈ 0.4 D).
The C atoms are partially negative (red), while the H atoms are partially positive (blue).
However, the two C-H bond dipoles point in <em>opposite directions</em>, so they cancel each other. The molecule has <em>no net dipole moment.</em>
Acetylene is nonpolar.
