CClF3 is polar because it is asymmetrical. Imagine the central carbon atom inside a tetrahedrom with the base of 3 flourines and the top of a chlorine. Since the flourines are more electronegative than the chlorine (F is higher in the VIIA column than Cl), they will get the bigger share of the electrons, and Cl less. So the fluorine side is d- and the chlorine side d+. It is hard to draw on this, but this is my best:
Cl d+
C
F F F d-

Is the molecule co polar or nonpolar?
The molecule is nonpolar.
Are polar solutes soluble in nonpolar solvents?
No, polar solutes are generally not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Is artificial flavor polar or nonpolar?
Artificial flavors can be either polar or nonpolar, depending on their chemical structure. Some artificial flavors may have polar functional groups (such as hydroxyl or carbonyl groups), making them polar molecules, while others may have nonpolar structures, making them nonpolar molecules.
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.
C2H2 polar or nonpolar?
C2H2 (Ethyne or Acetylene) is nonpolar because the molecule has a linear geometry with symmetric electronegativity, resulting in an equal distribution of charge and no net dipole moment.
Is C3H6Br2 polar or non polar?

Is peanut butter polar or nonpolar?
nonpolar. The fat molecules in peanut butter are nonpolar, that is why peanut butter doesn't evenly mix with water, a polar substance.
How do you explain the phrase like dissolves like in terms of polar and nonpolar substances?
Polar substances dissolve other polar substances, and nonpolar substances dissolve other nonpolar substances. A polar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance and a nonpolar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance.
Is HAsCl4 polar or nonpolar?
The shape is trigonal bipyramidal and all the atoms on the outside are the same so the charges cancel eachother. Nonpolar
Is the molecule co polar or nonpolar?
The molecule is nonpolar.
