Best Answer

The CI bond is slightly polar due to the small electronegativty difference between C (EN 2.55)and I (EN 2.66). For example CH3I has a dipole moment of around1.62-1.64 D (different researchers have published different figures)

Although each bond is slightly polar, the overall molecule is nonpolar because the polar vectors cancel out.

Cadmium Iodide (CdI2) is a non-polar molecule because its molecular geometry is linear and the dipoles cancel.

Cl2, diatomic chlorine, is non-polar. The molecule consists of two chlorine atoms, with an electronegativity difference of zero, thus the non-polarity.
