Does non polar mean hydrophobic or hydrophilic?
Non-polar molecules do not dissolve in water as they cannot form hydrogen bonds, and so they are hydrophobic.A non-polar molecule is one that the electrons are distributed more symmetrically. They do not have an abundance of charges at the opposite sides, and the charges cancel out each other.
Is the molecule HOBr polar?
Yes, the molecule HOBr is polar. This is because the molecular geometry of HOBr is non-symmetrical, leading to an uneven distribution of charge within the molecule, causing it to be polar.
What does hydrophilic mean and how do you determine if a molecule is hydrophilic or hydrophobic?
Hydrophilic, or 'water loving' refers to molecules that are easily miscible in water. Polar molecules and ionic compounds are generally hydrophilic, and non-polar molecules are generally hydrophobic.See the Related Questions to the left for more information about how to determine if a molecule is non-polar, polar, or ionic.
Has water have polar heads and nonpolar tails?
No, that could be a phospholipid that you're thinking of. Water is a polar molecule.
Is glycine a polar molecule?
Yes, glycine is a polar molecule.
Is hydrogen a non-polar molecule?
yes it is a non polar molecule
What is stickier a non polar molecule or a polar one?
A polar molecule.

O2 is non polar molecule .
Is CaOH02 a polar or nonpolar molecule?
non-polar molecule
Is oil a polar or non-polar?

Is the molecule CO carbon monoxide polar or non-polar?
it is polar (inorganic) molecule
Is a carbon dioxide molecule polar or nonpolar?
non-polar molecule
Is iodine polar or non polar?
An iodine molecule is formed by two 'I' atoms. It implies that the molecule is symmetrical and it is non-polar.
Is beryllium fluoride polar?
BeF2 is non-polar as it is (strangely) covalent in nature and as such, the molecule has a linear shape which produces a non-polar molecule.
Is TeCl4 polar or non-polar?
TeCl4 is a non-polar molecule. The molecule's symmetrical tetrahedral shape and similar electronegativities of chlorine and tellurium atoms result in a balanced distribution of charge, making the molecule non-polar.
What does nonpolar substance mean?
A non-polar molecule is a molecule that is symmetrical in the sense that the atoms on the outside pull equally on the central atom, thus not causing any differences in electronegativity.
Is iodine 2 polar?
It is a non-polar molecule.
