Sulfur tetrachloride (SCl₄) is not a neutral molecule; it is polar due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the sulfur atom, which creates an asymmetrical distribution of charge. While the individual S-Cl bonds are polar, the molecular geometry (see-saw shape) leads to an overall dipole moment, making SCl₄ a polar compound.
