The Molecule SF4 is Non-polar due to the fact that Fluorine is the most electronegative element in existence. Therefore the fluorine atoms evenly pull the molecule in four directions causing an even pull in the molecule and causing it to be non-polar

Is SiF4 Ionic?
No, it is a covalent molecule.
What shape does the molecule of SiF4 has?
Tetraheral
How does a drawing of polarity water and the bond polarities make a major contribution to the overall molecular polarity look?
The polarity is a vector quantity. The resultant of the polarity of bonds determines the polarity of the molecule. In CO2 there is polarity between the two C-O but the polarity is equal and opposite in direction so CO2 doesn't have polarity. If the polarity of bonds is not cancelled then the polarity remains in the molecule.

How does the shape of molecule affect the polarity of the molecule?
C.A molecule that has a symmetrical shape will be a nonpolar molecule.
