If we look at it, we know that it has a tetrahedral form because carbon (the central atom) is attached to 4 terminal atoms. We also know that the compound is polar due to hydrogen, which has much less negative electrons than fluorine and is more attracted to fluorine than hydrogen. If all terminal atoms are fluorine, then this relationship is non-polar. If not, your answer is D.
[Answer: D]
D. This molecule is similar to the CH4 molecule, the only difference being that it has 3F and H atoms.
This molecule is polar because the density of electrons is placed on three fluorines, which makes them polar.

D) Tetrahedral, polar
Fluorocarbons are tetrahedral and non-polar because fluorine and hydrogen have a very high electrical polarity.
