XeCl2 is non- polar because of its linear geometry. Cl-Xe-Cl, the symmetry of Cl bonds around Xe, cancels the electronegativity difference in the molecule.
COF2 is a polar molecule. It has triagonal planar geometry and the symmetry isnt the same in every direction making the molecule polar.
PCl4F has a trigonal bipyramid geometry (AX5 ) . thus its a polar molecule as the electronegativities are not cancelled due to lack of overall symmetry.
SF6 has an octahedral arrangement , arranged in such a way that each two fluorine atoms lie opposite to each other. Thus due to the inherent symmetry, there is no net dipole moment making it non-polar.
