Which of the following hydrocarbons has the lowest dipole moment?

A$${ CH }_{ 3 }H{ C=C }H{ CH }_{ 3 }$$
B$$CH_3C\, \equiv\, CCH_3$$
Correct Answer
C$$CH_3CH_2C\, \equiv\, CH$$
D$$CH_2\, =\, CH\, -\, C\, \equiv\, CH$$

Solution

$$CH_3C\, \equiv\, CCH_3$$ is symmetric structure and hence dipole moment is zero.

Option B is correct.
