Sulfur dioxide has a dipole moment of 1.60 D. Carbon dioxide has a dipole moment of zero, even though C¬O bonds are more polar than S¬O bonds. Explain this apparent contradiction
Draw a Lewis structure for a compound with molecular formula C4H11N in which three of the carbon atoms are bonded to the nitrogen atom. What is the geometry of the nitrogen atom in this compound? Does this compound exhibit a molecular dipole moment? If so, indicate the direction of the dipole moment.
Bonds between carbon and oxygen (C–O) are more polar than bonds between sulfur and oxygen (S–O). Nevertheless, sulfur dioxide (SO2) exhibits a dipole moment while carbon dioxide (CO2) does not. Explain this anomaly.

However, other molecules in the same VSEPR class, such as ammonia (NH3, H-N-H= 107°) and water (H2O, H-O-H = 105°), have smaller bond angles than expected.
