Which of the following molecules does not contain polar bonds?

Explanation

Polar bonds form between all atoms of different electronegativity. Bromine is a diatomic molecule and thus both atoms of bromine have the same electronegativity. This bond between bromine is perfectly nonpolar, meaning that both atoms share the electron density equally.
