Best Answer

IF4+ is symmetrical with the iodine atom in the center and the four fluorine atoms surrounding it. The positive charge is diffused evenly around all of the atoms in the molecule. Because a polar molecule requires an uneven charge distribution, IF4+ cannot be polar. It is a nonpolar cation.
