phosphate tetrahedral in shape; therefore is non-polar.
SO3 is trigonal planar which makes it non-polar.(see http://www.tutor-homework.com/Chemistry_Help/Molecular_Geometry/049_Sulfur_Trioxide_SO3.html)
NO2- is trigonal planar electronic geometry but molecular geometry is bent or v-shaped which makes it polar.
BrCl is polar because although linear there is a light difference in electronegativity between Br and Cl.
can you please tell me if I have the correct molecule type
PO4 3- polar
SO3 polar
NO2- polar
BrCl polar
