The dipole moment tells us that there is net dipole on the molecule which indicates that any dipoles due to polarity of the covalent bonds do not cancel each other out. For example H2O has a dipole moment which rules out a linear structure where the bond dipoles would cancel each other out.
Carbonate (CO3 2-) is trigonal planar with a central C and three O's 120 degrees from each other (D3h symmetry). All the O's have the same electron density because of resonance. This gives carbonate no dipole.
Ay molecule with a net dipole moment will have dipole -dipole interactions. These are molecules with polar bonds caused by a diference in electronegativity between the atoms being bonded.
As we know that dipole moment of polar molecules is greater than non-polar. In other words, in molecules where charge separation is more, it is more polar and hence having more dipole moment. In phenol, due to resonance, there is positive charge on oxygen. So there is no more charge difference between carbon of ring and oxygen of OH group. This is the reason, it has less dipole moment.
Symmetric molecules have no dipole moment. An example is carbon tetrachloride, CCl4 , which has no dipole moment yet the C-Cl bonds are polar, (chlorine is more electronegative than carbon). The chlorine atoms each have a small negative charge but because the molecule is tetrahedral there is no dipole and therefore no dipole moment
Yes. CO is polar. Polar molecules have dipole-dipole forces. They also have London dispersion forces, but dipole-dipole forces are stronger.
Yes there is a nonzero dipole moment since it is a square pyramid (molecular geometry) and has a lone pair.
All polar molecules have a permanent dipole moment, but London dispersion forces in non-polar molecules can cause temporary dipole moments as well.
The dipole moment is zero in nonpolar molecules and non-zero in polar molecules due to electronegativity. Polar molecules have balanced electronegativity that will cancel one another out, while nonpolar molecules have unbalanced electronegativity causing dipole moments.
PH3 has a dipole moment , of 0.58 D. Therefore there will be dipole dipole interactions. All molecules experience London dispersion forces as these are caused by the interaction of instantaneous dipoles due to the movement of electrons within the molecules.
A dipole moment is defined as the mathematical product of the separation of the ends of a dipole and the magnitude of the charges. Dipole moments are created by the separation of charge over a molecule. Some common molecules with dipoles are H2O, HF, NH3, etc...

Think of the sulfite ion as a molecule with its geometry and dipole moment AND a net charge. The electron pair geometry is tetrahedral and the molecular geometry is trigonal pyramidal and because of its asymmetrical shape and polar bonds, sulfite has a net dipole moment (2.04D ). The ion is polar.

Non-polar See the Related Questions to the left for more information about how to determine if a molecule is polar or non-polar.
NH3 is not symmetrical.So it has a dipole moment
