Detailed Solution

Bond are polar due to difference in electronegativity but molecule is non polar because μ=0.

In SF6 moleculeS-F  bond is polar due to an electronegativity difference between sulfur and fluorine. But Sulfur hexafluoride is a non polar compound in nature because as per VESPER theory six fluorine atoms are arranged symmetrically with sulfur atoms such that S-Fbond gets cancel out making its dipole moment zero hence, SF is nonpolar compound or molecule.

Hence, the correct option is option (A) bonds are polar but molecule is non polar.
