Actually, water, by hydrogen bonding with itself and not the nonpolar substances excludes the nonpolar substances from hydrogen bonding and turns them into associations with each other. Natural water can hydrogen bond with many polar and charged substances.

Does water have polar or non polar covalent bonds?
polar
Covalent bonds between atoms of like or similar electronegativity are called what bonds?
non-polar
Is water a non-polar solvent?
No, water is a polar solvent because of the polar oxygen-hydrogen bonds and the geometry of the compound.
What is the different between polar covalent and non polar covalent?
polar bonds are non metals bonded to non metals and non polar covalent bonds are bonds sharing electrons.....
Are the bonds in nicotine non-polar or polar?
Non-polar
What type of molecules dissolves in water polar or nonpolar?
Polar molecules dissolve in water. The reason why polar molecules dissolve in water, but not non-polar molecules is because non-polar molecules can't form hydrogen bonds.
Why H20is non polar covalent bond?
H2O has polar covalent bonds, not non-polar covalent bonds.
How polar and non polar bonds affect solubility?
Molecules with many polar bonds are soluble in polar solvents.Also, molecules with none or few polar bonds (many non-polar bonds) are soluble in non-polar solvent. e.g Water is a polar solvent so substances with many polar bonds are soluble in it.
Is sodium permanganate polar non-polar or an ionic molecule?
It has polar bonds. It is classified as an ionic molecule. It will dissolve in a polar substance, such as water.
Covalent bonds between atoms of like or similar electrogativity are called?
Such bonds are called non-polar bonds.
What type of non metals?
Covalent bonds, polar or non-polar
Non polar gases are poorly soluble in water Why?
Because water is polar. Something that is non-polar doesn't dissolve in water because "like dissolves like."
