    H2S, SO2, CHCl3 are polar molecules

    Explanation:

    H2S is a polar molecule as the molecule has trigonal shape and the two polar bond are at an angle not opposite to each other.

    CCl4 - the two pair of polar bonds are opposite to each other. Therefore, cancelling their affect and hence non polar.

    CO2 has a linear shape. Again, the two polar bonds are opposite and hence the molecule non polar.

    SO2: SO2 has a trigonal planer shape because of the lone pair of electron with the sulphur atom and hence, the molecule is polar.

    CHCl3 is a polar organic compound because of the presence both H and Cl atoms on carbon.
