nonpolar.

Polar molecules have charges that non-polar molecules do not
have. It is the reason why non-polar molecules can move through the

Polar solvents will dissolve ionic or polar solutes. This is due
to the solubility rule that states that like dissolves like. So a
polar solvent will not dissolve non-polar solutes.
