Answer
Polar. Its geometry is bent, as it has one lone pair (nonbonding domain) and two bonding domains. It has an asymmetrical distribution of charge. However, it is not very polar as the electronegativities of sulfur and oxygen are similar.

Are lipids polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar or polar
Is so3 ionic nonpolar or covalent?
Covalent
Is SO3- polar or non-polar?
SO3 is a non polar molecule. Although the bonds between the S and O atoms are polar because S is more electronegative than O hence creating an electronegativity difference, the molecule is non polar. This is because the negative and positive centres are both loacted in the same place (at the S molecule) as they are all on the same plane and therefore there is no permanant dipole as the dipoles in the bond cancel each other out, therefore the molecule is non polar.
C2H2 polar or nonpolar?
polar covalent
Were there any nonpolar compounds that had polar covalent bonds If so which ones Explain this apparent this inconsistency?
CBr4 and SO3 have polar covalent bonds, yet they are nonpolar compounds. The shape of each molecule enables the charges to be distributed evenly, rather than being concentrated in one area. As a result, the molecule as a whole is nonpolar.
Is C3H6Br2 polar or non polar?
Nonpolar
What are the 2 types of bonding?
polar and nonpolar
Is sulfite polar or nonpolar?
It is a nonpolar compound because their electronegativity differences are not big and therefore rendering them nonpolar. Also the only intermolecular force evident in SO3 is the London force meaning that it is only nonpolar.
