There are two allowed structures of SF4Cl2... the cisform where one chlorine is in an equitorial position and one is axial, and the trans form where both chlorines are in axial positions. In the trans form the S-F bond dipoles all cancel each other, as do the S-Cl bond dipoles, because they are opposite each other. Therefore the molecule is non-polar. In the cisform, two of the S-F bond dipoles cancel, but because the other S-F bond dipoles are across from S-Cl bond dipoles, they do not cancel (S-F is more polar than an S-Cl bond). Therefore, the cisform is polar.

Is ClF4 plus polar or nonpolar?
ClF4+ is a polar molecule because it has a net dipole moment due to the unequal sharing of electrons between chlorine and fluorine atoms. This unequal sharing causes the molecule to have regions of partial positive and negative charges.
