SeCl4 would be non-polar covalent, because the electronegativity between Se and each Cl would be about the same. They differ by about 0.6. Don't multiply the the electronegativity by 4, because you want to find the difference between each Se---Cl bond. A polar molecule would have an electronegativity difference of less than 2.
Electronegativity values are not something you memorize you always have to look them up
What else can I help you with?
What distinguish between polar and non polar dielectrics?
b c polar molecules are easily soluable in water thanthe non polar molecules
Why does non polar molecules repel water molecules?
Because it is like a magnatizing ordeal so to say and it just bounces of non polar molcuels. :)
Why do oil and water hate each other?
Water is polar while oils are non-polar. Molecules that are polar will mix with other polar molecules, and non-polar molecules will mix with other non-polar molecules. Polar and non-polar molecules will not mix.
What substance does not dissolve water?
Non-polar substances such as oil and wax do not dissolve in water because they are not attracted to water molecules. This is due to the difference in polarity between the non-polar substance and water.
How do polar and non-polar bonds interact with each other?
Polar molecules reacts with polar molecules and non-polar molecules react with non-polar molecules.
What is the difference between polar and non polar?
The difference between a polar and non-polar molecule is in terms of sharing electrons. In the case of a polar molecule, electrons are not shared in an equal manner among the atoms that made the bond. But in the case of a non-polar molecule, electrons are shared in an equal manner among the atoms that made the bond.
Are non-polar molecules more attracted to other non-polar molecules or polar molecules?
Non-polar molecules are generally more attracted to other non-polar molecules due to the similar distribution of electronic charge. This attraction is known as London dispersion forces. Polar molecules tend to interact with other polar molecules through stronger dipole-dipole interactions or hydrogen bonding.
Is a dry erase marker polar or non polar?
Dry erase markers are typically considered to be non-polar because they contain ingredients like alcohol and glycol that are water-soluble and do not have a significant difference in electronegativity between the atoms in the molecules.
What is the difference between polar and nonpolar molecules?
Polar covalent molecule is where one element in the bond is more electronegative and holds the shared electrons closer to itself. Non polar covalent bonds is where they're evenly between each element.
Are hexane molecules polar?
No, hexane molecules are non-polar.
Is it true thatMolecules that have distinct poles are called polar molecules?
Yes, that is correct. Polar molecules have an uneven distribution of electron density, resulting in distinct positive and negative poles. This polarity is often due to differences in electronegativity between the atoms within the molecule.
Which of the following molecules is non-polar CO SO2 NO AlCl3?
AlCl3 is the only non-polar molecule in the list provided. The other molecules (CO, SO2, and NO) have polar covalent bonds due to differences in electronegativity between the atoms involved, making them polar molecules. AlCl3 has a symmetrical arrangement of polar covalent bonds, resulting in a non-polar molecule overall.
