A
partial charge
B
no dipole moment
C
permanent dipole moment
D
instantaneous dipole moment

While non-polar molecules inherently lack a permanent dipole, the continuous, random movement of their electrons can temporarily create uneven charge distributions. These fleeting electrical imbalances generate instantaneous dipole moments, which are the driving force behind London dispersion interactions.
