CH3OH is a polar molecule owing to the polarity rendered by the -OH group. Its structure can be thought of as very similar, if not exactly, to the water molecule, and the CH3- group decreases the polarity as compared to water.

Is ch3oh non polar covalent or polar covalent?
Methanol is a polar covalent compound.
What compound is more polar ch3ch2ch2ch2ch2ch2ch2oh ch3ch2ch2ch2oh or ch3oh how do you know?
CH3OH is more polar the others have more hydrocarbons on the them making them less polar and less soluble.
Which is the most water soluble what compounds C6H6 C CH3OH C10H8?
The latter. C6H14 is a hydrocarbon, which is not water soluble; the molecule is non-polar. Whereas C6H13OH has that nice hydroxyl radical added on, which gives the molecule some polarity. Water, of course, is a polar solvent.
Is zinc fluoride soluble in methanol?
AnswerYes, ZnF2 is polar and CH3OH is polar. Like dissolves like.
How do you find the polarity of CH3OH?
This is methanol compound. There is a polar -O-H bond.
Is ch3oh non polar covalent or polar covalent?
Methanol is a polar covalent compound.

CH3OH is more polar the others have more hydrocarbons on the them making them less polar and less soluble.
Is ch3oh a polar molecule?
Yes.

AnswerYes, ZnF2 is polar and CH3OH is polar. Like dissolves like.
Why methyl aclcohol soluble in water and benzene is not?
The solubility difference between methyl alcohol (CH3OH) and benzene (C6H6) is related to the polar nature of methyl alcohol and the non polar nature of benzene. The OH group on methyl alcohol makes this a polar molecule and thus soluble in water. The lack of such a polar group in benzene makes it non polar, and thus insoluble in water.
How do you find the polarity of CH3OH?
This is methanol compound. There is a polar -O-H bond.
Is ch40 ionic or covalent compound?
CH4O or CH3OH is methanol and is polar covalent compound.
Why does Cu have a greater boiling point than methanol CH3OH?
Cu has a lower boiling point than CH3OH because its particles are less polar. the CH3OH molecules have to have more kinetic energy to break the bonds between them and the surrounding molecules.
Which of the following would be most soluble or miscible in cbr4 and which one will be more soluble in water A. NaCl B. HCl C. CH3OH D. CH4 E. C2H6?
Polar molecules dissolve in polar solvents (like water), and non-polar molecules dissolve in non-polar solvents (like CBr4). NaCl and HCl will both dissolve in water, and CH4 and C2H6 will dissolve in CBr4. CH3OH will likely dissolve in water as well. ---------- Methanol is soluble/miscible in water at all concentrations. It will likely also interact well with non-polar solvents like Tetrabromomethane. Keep in mind that methane and ethane are gasses at STP, but should dissolve well in Tetrabromomethane in the right conditions.
Is methanol more soluable than methane?
Yes, methanol is CH3OH and methane is CH4. Methanol is polar (because of the O-H bond) and methane is non-polar (because it is a hydrocarbon.) Water (which is polar) will dissolve other polar things, but not non-polar things.
Is br2 polar or non polar?
non polar.
