CHF3 (trifluoromethane) is a non-polar molecule. This is because the fluorine atoms are symmetrically arranged around the central carbon atom, resulting in a symmetrical distribution of charge and no overall dipole moment.
Hydrocarbons containing chlorine atoms are called chlorinated hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons containing fluorine atoms are called fluorinated hydrocarbons. eg> CHCl3, CHF3 etc
Liquids do not have a definite shape, as they take the shape of the container in which they are placed.
Yes, liquids do not have a fixed shape and take the shape of their container. This is because the particles in a liquid are able to move around and flow past each other.
The state of matter that does not have a definite volume or shape is gas. Gases will expand to fill the space available to them and do not have a fixed shape or volume.
