Because the electrons in a molecule of hydrogen fluoride (HF) are more strongly pulled toward the fluorine atom the molecule is nonpolar.?
That statement is incorrect. HF is a polar molecule because fluorine is more electronegative than hydrogen, causing the electron density to be pulled closer to the fluorine atom. As a result, HF has a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge on the fluorine atom.
What kind of molecule has two positive atoms attached to a positive atom?
There is no such thing. A positive molecule will only be attracted to a negative molecule.
Why PH3 and OF2 and HF are polar molecules?
due to the difference in the between the two atoms in the molecule
A molecule that has a negative and poositve end is?
A molecule that has a negative and positive end is a polar molecule.
Which has a higher boiling point HI or HF?
HF is electronegative compared to O2. HF has delta plus and delta minus creating a dipole moment, it is a polar molecule therefore it has a higher boiling point. O2 which is symmetrical and non polar (looks like O=O) and therefore has no dipole moment.
What does a negative Hf for molecule mean?
Energy was released when the molecule was formed from its elements
Is HF a oxyacid?
HF is not an oxyacid; no oxygen in the molecule.

That statement is incorrect. HF is a polar molecule because fluorine is more electronegative than hydrogen, causing the electron density to be pulled closer to the fluorine atom. As a result, HF has a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge on the fluorine atom.
What molecule has a positive end and negative end?
A zwitterion, if you mean formal charges. If you just mean relatively positive and negative, then a polar molecule.
What is the molecule formula for hydroflouric acid?
HF is the formula.
Is HF a covalent molecule?
Yes! Polar covalent.
Molecule with a positive end and a negative end?
Polar molecules have partial negative and partial positive charges on opposing sides. They have a net dipole as a result of the opposing charges.
What describes an object with a positive charge?
An molecule with a positive charge is a cation not sure if that's what you mean though.
What kind of molecule has two positive atoms attached to a positive atom?
There is no such thing. A positive molecule will only be attracted to a negative molecule.
Why PH3 and OF2 and HF are polar molecules?
due to the difference in the between the two atoms in the molecule
Does a A molecule with a positive charge attracted to another molecule with a positive charge?
Nope
What chemical formula represent a diatomic molecule?
a diatomic molecule is a molecule with two atoms. so H2 is a diatomic molecule. HCl is also a diatomic molecule. C4H6 is not a diatomic molecule, because it has more then 2 atoms
