yes. This is a compound between two non metals, with similar electronegativities. The compound is usually called methane.
Covalent molecules which contain only bonds between elements of similar electronegativity. For example: Carbon and hydrogen. They must not contain polar bonds like Oxygen and hydrogen.
yes
Bonds between carbon and hydrogen are non-polar.
Carbon dioxide
P4: Nonpolar covalent bonds. H2S: Polar covalent bonds. NO2: Polar covalent bonds. S2Cl2: Nonpolar covalent bonds.
No. Carbon dioxide has polar bonds, but the molecule as a whole is nonpolar because it is symmetric.
The bonds in CF4 are polar due to the difference in electronegativity between carbon and fluorine. However, the molecule as a whole is nonpolar because the dipole moments of the polar bonds cancel each other out.
carbon dioxide
It is a non-polar molecule. But it has polar covalent bonds between its atoms
Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) is considered nonpolar because it has a symmetrical tetrahedral shape with four identical covalent bonds between carbon and chlorine atoms. The electronegativity difference between carbon and chlorine is not significant enough to create a polar molecule.
Of the gases listed, only CO2 contains polar bonds. The oxygen atom in CO2 is more electronegative than the carbon atoms, creating an asymmetrical distribution of electron density and resulting in a polar molecule.
Carbon dioxide is a non-polar molecule containing polar covalent bonds in its atoms.
