PCl3 has trigonal pyramidal structure due to the presence of the lone pair on P, So It has dipole moment.

Which substance is likely to have the largest dipole dipole forces? a. PCl3  b. CCl4 c. PCl5 d. CO2 e. SO3 | Homework.Study.com

SF6 forms an octahedral structure i.e. symmetrical shape, So individual dipoles get cancelled, therefore, net dipole is zero.

CCl4 is non polar molecule because the central carbon atom undergoes sp3 hybridization which results in regular tetrahedral geometry in which all the four bond dipoles cancel each other. Hence, the dipole moment is zero.

BF3 forms trigonal planar structure i.e. symmetrical shape, So individual dipoles get cancelled, therefore, net dipole is zero.
