Is BCI3 polar or nonpolar bond?

The bond in boron trichloride, BCl3, is polar covalent.


Is BCl3 polar or non-polar?

i have it as nonpolar cuz the Cl are on all sides and they're da same (like PH3)


Is BCl4 a polar or nonpolar molecule?

I don't think BCl4 is even a POSSIBLE molecule since boron has only three valence electrons; perhaps you mean BCl3 (which is nonpolar)?


Is BrCl covalent or ionic bond?

Covalent. Ionic bonds form between a metal and a non metal. 2 non metals usually means a covalent bond formed.


Is BaCl4 an ionic compound?

Yes, because an ionic compound is between a metal (Ba) and non-metal (Cl).


Use complete sentences to explain why AlCl3 is called “aluminum chloride” (no prefix required), but BCl3 is called “boron trichloride.”?

Ionic compounds do not have prefixes but covalent compounds have prefixes. “Aluminum chloride” is a ionic compound and "boron tri-chloride” is a covalent compound.


What bond does BCl3 make?

its covalent bond


What type of bond is BCl3?

polar covalent -the bonding of electrons is shared unequally and the two atoms both have different electronegativities B- 2.0 Cl- 3.0

BCl3 H2O NH3 and PCl3 which is non-polar?

BCl3 is non-polar. The B-Cl bonds are polar but the molecule is not. You should review shapes of molecules. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion, VSEPR. Applying VSEPR on BCl3, we can find out that the shape of the molecule is trigonal planar. Due to its geometry, the bonds cancel out.


Does BCl3 have polar bonds?

Yes, each B-Cl bond is polar. but the molecule is having trigonal planar geometry and is a non-polar molecule.


Identify the molecule that has polar bonds but is non-polar out of BCl3 NH3 SCl2 CHCl3 and H2S?

You need to look at the molecular geometry using VSEPR theory in order to answer this question. If you do so, you'll find that one of the molecules is both planar and symmetric within that plane. That's the non-polar compound. (In other words: I've given you a hint; do your own homework.) the hint is about BCl3 but it has a net dipole so it is also polar.
