Probably you are intending to question whether CCl4 has a dipole moment.

if so the answer is no. it is because CCl4 is a symmetric molecule and hence even if each bond has a dipole moment, the algebraic sum of the dipole moments of all the four bonds cancel out resulting in zero dipole moment.

Which molecule has polar bond but its overall dipole momen is zero?

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

Based on vsepr models of CCl4 and NH3 propose a hypothesis about the polarities of these molecules?

The polar C-CL bonds are distributed around the central carbon atom in CCL4. The dispoles therefore cancels out and CCL4 is not expected to be polar overall. The trigonal pyramidal shape of NH3 is expected to prodice a not dipole moment.


Why dipole moment is zero in non polar molecules non zero in polar molecules?

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.

Why does H2O have a higher melting point than CCl4?

It has to do with intermolecular forces. H2O has an oxygen with two hydrogens coming off of it. This forms two hydrogen bonds, which are much stronger than the London Dispersion Forces in CCl4. (Since CCl4 is non-polar, there are no Dipole-Dipole forces).
