Is ethylene glycol molecule polar or non- polar?

Ethylene glycol molecule is polar due to the presence of hydroxyl groups which create an uneven distribution of charge within the molecule.


Is ethanol more polar than ethylene glycol?

Ethylene glycol is more polar than ethanol - a rough measure of polarity is given by the dielectric constant. For example, water is 80, ethylene glycol 37, and ethanol 24.3. Water is the most polar, followed by ethylene glycol and ethanol. Another way to think about it is that ethanol has one alcohol group, and ethylene glycol has two, so it is more polar.


Does ethylene glycol molecules have a greater attraction for cyclopentane than for each other?

No, ethylene glycol molecules have a much stronger attraction for each other due to hydrogen bonding, compared to their attraction for non-polar molecules like cyclopentane. This is due to the polar nature of the ethylene glycol molecule, which forms strong intermolecular forces with other ethylene glycol molecules.
