...that's not even CH2Cl2 That's C2H2Cl2

yeah CH2Cl2 is tetrahedral which is why im confused

The trans-dichloride should be the answer imo

that is indeed what i thought i guess ill check actual data just to confirm ah yes, i dont know how to look up dipole moment numerical data for (3) and (4)

PubChem I'll do it dw Gimme a minute

If we both agree that its option 4 then its fine, I can consider this sorted
