Is I3- polar or non-polar?

its T-shaped, So if we take the vectors of the right and left side , both of them will cancel ,eventually you will be left out with the downward vector which wont cancel. So the sum will be >0therefore, Its Polar


Is ClF3 polar or non polar?

Polar. Cl has two nonbonding electron pairs, since there are 28 valence electrons. Each F takes 6 and uses 2 in a bond to Cl, so that accounts for 24 and the remaining 4 go into the nonbonding pairs resulting in a T-Shaped geometry.


Why is t-butyl chloride insoluble in water whereas t-butyl alcohol is soluble in water?

T-butyl chloride is insoluble in water because it is a nonpolar molecule, which does not interact favorably with the polar water molecules. T-butyl alcohol, on the other hand, is soluble in water due to the presence of the hydroxyl group, which can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules, enhancing its solubility.


How does polarity of the solute and solvent affect the solubility of a solution?

Water is a polar substance, made so by the intermolecular forces (called dipole-dipole forces) between positive and negative charged ends of molecules. water's polar nature is due also to its structure and uneven sharing of electrons. the oxygen atom pulls electrons away from the hydrogen so there is an unequal sharing of elections. think of this as a higher concentration of negative charge around the oxygen atoms. this uneven balance of charge makes the two hydrogen atoms "bend" away from the oxygen. For a substance to be soluble in water it usually must be polar too (remember: like dissolves like). however, ionic compounds (like NaCl) also dissolve in water whereas non-polar things such as CO2 do not dissolve in water. if you've taken organic chemistry note also that anything over about 4 carbons is relatively insoluble and by about hexane (6 carbons) it is totally insoluble. note also that molecular branching affects solubility, so t-butyl will vary in solubility compared to n-butyl. Generally, molecules with H, OH, N, S will be polar whereas most things with lots of carbons or diatomic molecules (O2, for example) will be non-polar


Is brcl3 polar or non polar?

It is a polar molecule because although it's shape is linear, (which is a non-polar shape) the electro negativity is not the same between the two atoms. Therefore, the electrons are a little closer to Cl.

The little green T shaped things on the cells are?

The little green T shaped things on cells are protein molecules called receptors. These receptors bind to specific molecules or signaling factors in the body, triggering a cellular response. They play a crucial role in processes like cell communication, signaling, and regulation.

Why is cyclopentane insoluble in water?

1-butanol is soluble in water up to 7.4 %wt at 20oC and 7.7 %wt at 30oC, in other words if you add in less than this percentage it will dissolve. Beyond it, the water will start rejecting the 1-butanol and the solution will turn cloudy or more appropriate wording, turbid and will separate if left to settle. This happens because of the hydrophobic nature of the hydrocarbon chain will become stronger than the hydrophilic -OH group, so the larger the chain the less that will dissolve as with 1-pentanol where the solubility is 2 %wt at 20oC.


Is butane polar?

No, butane is nonpolar because it consists of only carbon and hydrogen atoms, which have similar electronegativities. This even distribution of electron density results in a symmetrical nonpolar molecule.


What is the difference between T cell receptors and MHC molecules?

T cell receptors bind to MHC class 1 molecules. MHC class 1 molecules bind to peptides (self or foreign) and present it to the cell's membrane. The job of a T cell is to decide what is presented on the MHC class 1 cell whether to leave it alone or to activate to destroy it because it is non-self.
