No. It is polar. If you think about the Mickey Mouse ears, protons from the hydrogen atoms are on that side which makes it positively charged, and since the protons in the nucleus of the oxygen are split in half the bottom is negative.

What can water do if it wasent a polar molecule?
If water would be a non polar molecule all the life chemistry would be changed or would not be possible. This non polar liquid would be unable to be a quasi-universal solvent.
What is a household example of a polar liquid and a non-polar liquid and a strong electrolyte and an emulsion?
Polar liquid: waterNon-polar liquid: oilstrong electrolyte: salt wateremulsion: moisturizing lotion
What is the relation of non-polar and polar in water?
What is the relation of non-polar and polar in water?
Why is naphthalene more soluble in petroleum ether than in water?
naphthalene is non-polar and can only dissolve in non-polar solvents. ether is non-polar, water is polar.
What are polar and non-polar liquids?
A polar liquid is a liquid that does not have any/much of a hydrocarbon chain and has mainly OH, NH or even C=O or C=-N groups. As you increase the carbon chain, you become less polar. Polar solvents include water, dimethylformamide, ethanol, methanol, acetonitrile to name a few. Non polar solvents include pentane, hexane, toluene, heptane to name a few.
Is octadecane non polar?
It is non polar because you need a surfactant to dissolve it in water (a polar liquid).
What is the solubility of water in liquid argon?
Liquid argon is much colder than the freezing point of water, and water ice has virtually no solubility in argon. Water is a polar compound, and argon is non-polar.
Is liquid nitrogen polar?
No, it is non-polar.
What can water do if it wasent a polar molecule?
If water would be a non polar molecule all the life chemistry would be changed or would not be possible. This non polar liquid would be unable to be a quasi-universal solvent.
Does oil require more BTU than water to heat?
NO! Water being a polar liquid requires much more energy to heat than a non-polar liquid like oil.
If water were non polar molecule how would its properties be different?
A nonpolar liquid cannot dissolve polar molecules.
Which property is responsible for the fact that water and oil do not mix?
polarity! Polarity is the reason that water and oil do not mix
What is a household example of a polar liquid and a non-polar liquid and a strong electrolyte and an emulsion?
Polar liquid: waterNon-polar liquid: oilstrong electrolyte: salt wateremulsion: moisturizing lotion
Is coconut water non-polar?
coconut water is non polar
What is the solubility of Argon in water?
Liquid argon is much colder than the freezing point of water, and water ice has virtually no solubility in argon. Water is a polar compound, and argon is non-polar.
Why kerosene oil is not dissolved in water?
kerosene does not dissolve in water because it is a non polar liquid while water is polar so due to different nature they are insoluble. kerosene due to less density floats over water surface.
Is n-octane polar?
water is polar and immiscible with the non-polar octanol.
