Trolox is amphiphilic. It has a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic end. It is not really water soluble. It becomes a microemulsion upon contact with water, which means it forms a micellar structure. So, it has polar and non polar properties. Many surfactants follow this rule and this property gives Trolox much better bioavailability than regular Vitamin E. I would describe its polarity as "polar covalent". However, its overall charge will be dependent upon the total thermodynamic quantification of each bond within the molecule.

Is toothpaste non-polar?
Toothpaste is typically a mixture of polar and non-polar substances. The surfactants in toothpaste are usually polar, while other ingredients such as thickeners and abrasives can be non-polar.
Is the following combinations expected to be soluble or insoluble polar solute and non-polar solvent?
A polar solute is expected to be soluble in a non-polar solvent. This is because "like dissolves like" – polar molecules tend to dissolve in polar solvents, and non-polar molecules dissolve in non-polar solvents.
Does polar or non polar dissolve in water?
Polar substances dissolve in water because they have similar polar characteristics that allow them to interact and mix well. Non-polar substances, on the other hand, do not dissolve in water because water is a polar molecule and cannot effectively interact with non-polar molecules.
Leucine polar or non-polar?
It is non polar. In amino acids, "polar" or "nonpolar" refers specifically to the side chain; the molecule as a whole is definitely polar, but leucine's side chain is a hydrocarbon with no polar groups.
SBr2 polar or nonpolar?
SBr2 is a polar molecule. This is because the S-Br bonds are polar due to the difference in electronegativity between sulfur and bromine. Additionally, the shape of the molecule is angular, which results in an uneven distribution of electron density, making it polar overall.
What does non polar and polar mean?
Polar contains polar. Non-polar contains nothing.
