Best Answer

Nonpolar

Well, if you begin by drawing the Lewis Structure you will see that there is an octahedral shape (the six single bonds). Now fill in the empty space with your valence electrons and each of the Fluorines should be filled. This means that there is an equal charge across the entire molecule and there are no poles, this indicates a nonpolar molecule.

It is non-polar because of the distribution and geometry of the molecule
