What else can I help you with?
Does XeF4 have dipole moment?
Yes, XeF4 has a dipole moment. Although the individual Xe-F bonds are polar due to the difference in electronegativity between xenon and fluorine, the molecule as a whole is nonpolar because of its symmetrical square planar geometry that cancels out the dipole moments of the individual bonds.
Is XeF4 an ionic compound?
No, XeF4 is not an ionic compound. It is a covalent compound, as xenon and fluorine share electrons to form chemical bonds in the molecule.
Is XeF4 a polar or nonpolar?
It is non polar. The central Xe atom has 4 Fluorine atoms and two electron pairs attached giving it AB4E2 molecular structure. This leads to a square planar molecular shape. F is more electronegative than Xe and is thus a polar covalent bond, but the 4 bonds in a square cancel out, and the electron pair on top and bottom of the "square plane" cancel each-other out as well, leaving you with a non polar molecule
Is ASCL3 a polar or nonpolar molecule?
ASCl3 is a polar molecule.
Is CFH3 a polar or nonpolar molecule?
CFH3 is a polar molecule.
Is xenon tetrafluoride polar?
No. Carbon tetrafuoride is a non polar molecule but with polar covalents bonds. the polar covalent bonds sort of cancel each other out on each opposite side (because of it's symmetry) making it non polar overall. (CF4 is tetrahedral)
What is an example of a molecule with square planar geometry?

What is the intermolecular forces of xef4?
Xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4) primarily exhibits London dispersion forces due to its nonpolar nature, despite having polar bonds between xenon and fluorine. These forces arise from temporary dipoles created by fluctuations in electron distribution. Additionally, there may be some dipole-dipole interactions due to the polar Xe-F bonds, but the molecule's overall symmetry makes it nonpolar, limiting these interactions. Thus, the dominant intermolecular forces in XeF4 are London dispersion forces.

Is the molecule CO carbon monoxide polar or non-polar?
it is polar (inorganic) molecule
What happens if water is a polar molecule?
Water IS a polar molecule.
Could Water be a polar molecule?
Water is a polar molecule.
Is H2O a Polar molecule?
H2O is a water molecule, which is polar.
