BCl3 is non-polar. The B-Cl bonds are polar but the molecule is not. You should review shapes of molecules. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion, VSEPR. Applying VSEPR on BCl3, we can find out that the shape of the molecule is trigonal planar. Due to its geometry, the bonds cancel out.

Does NH3 contain a nonpolar covalent bond?
No. NH3 contains three polar covalent bonds.
Is NH3 an acid in water?
No, it isn't, NH3 in water is NH3.H2O or NH4OH, it is an alkali, not an acid.
What substances contains a nonpolar covalent bond mgf2 nacl nh3 h2o n2?
MgF2 and NaCl are ionic. NH3 and H2O contain polar covalent bonds. N2 contains non polar covalent bond.
Which is more polar NH3 or H2O?
h2o

Does NH3 contain a nonpolar covalent bond?
No. NH3 contains three polar covalent bonds.
What does that mean NH3 H2O NH4OH?
ammonia (NH3) dissolves in water (H2O) to form ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH)
Is NH3 an acid in water?
No, it isn't, NH3 in water is NH3.H2O or NH4OH, it is an alkali, not an acid.
Is NH3 alkaline?
Yes, ammonia NH3 is alkaline in solution (though weakly):NH3 + H2O
How many single covalent bonds are elements in group 15?
minimum of three as in NH3, PCl3 maximum of five as in PCl5
How many moles of H2O can be formed when 4.5 moles of NH3 react with 3.2 moles of O2 NH3 plus O2 yields NO plus H2O?
Using the molar mass of nh3, we find that we have 2.5 moles of nh3. Since 3 moles of h2o are produced per 2 moles of nh3, we see that we will produce 3.75 moles of h2o. This is equivalent to around 3.79 g.
BCl3 PCl3 CS2 NO3 SO3 NH3 IF5 XeF2 SO2 Which of these molecules has a central atom that violates the octet rule?
Xenon difluoride, XeF2. Xenon is a noble gas, and as such has a full outer shell of eight electrons; as per the octet rule, it doesn't usually form chemical bonds. However, highly reactive nonmetals such as fluorine can induce it to do so.
What type of bond is ammonia?
The bonding in ammonia, NH3 is a nonpolar covalent bond.
