Butanol, being an alcohol, is slightly polar.
The C-O-H bonds are responsible for that. O being more electronegative pulls electrons towards itself from C and H atoms. However, it is less polar than methanol or ethanol.

Are lipids polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar or polar
Is C3H6Br2 polar or non polar?
Nonpolar
Why is tert-butyl methyl ether more polar than petroleum ether?
Tert-butyl methyl ether more polar than petroleum ethere cause petroleum ether isn't an ether- it's composed of hydrocarbons, which are nonpolar. The real ether that is in tBME includes oxygen, which is electronegative and creates more polarity in the molecule.
Is Barium hydroxide polar or nonpolar?
yes. yes it is.
Is SiF6 2- polar or nonpolar?

Is diethyl ether polar or nonpolar?
There are two isomers of Ethenediol. One is polar and the other is nonpolar.
Is KrCl2 polar or nonpolar?
It's ionic, not polar
Is Barium hydroxide polar or nonpolar?
yes. yes it is.
Is PO4 3- polar or nonpolar?
It is non polar
Is SiF6 2- polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar
Is ClF4 plus polar or nonpolar?
Cl4 does not exist, but if CCl4 is meant: this is a nonpolar compound
