Covalent. It is a mixture of high molecular weight hydrocarbons, C25 and greater. It is a by-producrt of the petro-chemical industry. Patented by a Mr Cheseborough it was first marketed as Vaseline.
Cobalt is an element. Polar, non-polar and ionic are terms to describe compounds. They measure whether the compound as delta charges or their form of bonding. Thus, it is not applicable to cobalt (Co), which is an element and pure by itself.
Ionic compounds are non-polar because they consist of ions (charged particles) held together by electrostatic forces. These compounds do not have a separation of charge within the molecule, which is characteristic of polar compounds.
Iron chloride is more than just polar. It is ionic.
CaF2 is considered an ionic compound because it is composed of a metal cation (Ca) and a nonmetal anion (F) bonded together through ionic bonds. It is not considered as polar or nonpolar since ionic compounds do not have distinct polar or nonpolar characteristics as covalent compounds do.
Ionic compounds would be least likely to dissolve in water as they are held together by strong electrostatic forces that are not easily broken by water molecules. Non-polar compounds are also unlikely to dissolve in water because water is a polar solvent and non-polar compounds are not attracted to water molecules.
Ammonia is polar.
No, baking soda is not polar. It is, however, Ionic.
Polar Covalent
Sodium bicarbonate is an ionic compound.
Magnesium chloride has an ionic bond.
Polar!
Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond
ionic compounds are polar compounds because they have charge separation between them
No, it is extremely polar and in fact ionic.
Cobalt is an element. Polar, non-polar and ionic are terms to describe compounds. They measure whether the compound as delta charges or their form of bonding. Thus, it is not applicable to cobalt (Co), which is an element and pure by itself.
Ionic compounds are non-polar because they consist of ions (charged particles) held together by electrostatic forces. These compounds do not have a separation of charge within the molecule, which is characteristic of polar compounds.
Calcium hydroxide is ionic, and therefore polarity does not occur.
