why berilliyum chloride has a 0 dipole moment although Be-cl bonds are polar

Q: why berilliyum chloride has a 0 dipole moment although Be-cl bonds are polar

BeCl 2 has a linear molecule with a bond angle of 180 0 . As two polar bonds are equal and opposite in orientation the net dipole will be zero as dipole is a force and a vector quantity.
