Its all down to shape and electronegativity of P and I. P and I have slightly different electronegativities so the P-I bonds would be predicted to be just polar. The shape is predicted by VSEPR theory to be determined by the number of electron pairs around the P atom. In PI3 there are four, three forming the bonds and one lone pair-- - so PI3 is a trigonal pyramid - (electron pairs are roughly tetrahedrally placed and one of them is the lone pair). the molecular symmetry means that any dipole in the bonds is not cancelled out- so expect a very small dipole moment. This is what is found.
PI3 is a polar molecule due to the uneven distribution of electron density caused by the lone pairs on the central phosphorus atom and the three iodine atoms. This results in a net dipole moment for the molecule, making it polar.
The molecule is nonpolar.
No, polar solutes are generally not soluble in nonpolar solvents.
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.
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.

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.
The shape is trigonal bipyramidal and all the atoms on the outside are the same so the charges cancel eachother. Nonpolar
