Use Lewis structures and vsepr theory to determine which ch4 and ch3cl are polar and non-polar?

CH3Cl is polar, CH4 is not. You'll have to do your own Lewis structures, and I'm personally a little mystified as to exactly what VSEPR has to do with it (if you were comparing CH4 with NH3 instead, then you'd need VSEPR).
