When a charged comb is brought near their flowing stream, how many of them show deflection as per the following figure?

JEE Advanced 2020 Paper 2 Offline Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 10 English
Answer
6

Explanation

Only polar liquid will be attracted towards charged comb due to the formation of electrically charged droplets in the polar liquid stream, induced by a nearby charged object. Hence, liquid showing deflection are HF, H2O, NH3, H2O2, CHCl3, C6H5Cl.
