The compound XeCl2F2 can exist in two different forms. One form is polar and the other form is non-polar. Draw a valid Lewis structure of XeCl2F2. Then, draw two 3-dimensional representations of this molecule (including all lone pairs); one that shows the polar form with a correct dipole arrow and the other that shows the non-polar form of the molecule.
