It is not polar. only the bonds between the chlorine and carbon are polar

Is Br2 more soluble in H2O or CCl4?

ccl4 will dissolve better in water because likes dissolves likes, H2O is non-polar an CCL4 is also non polar where as ch2cl2 is polar(different to water) there for it wont dissolve in water but CCL4 will^^This is not true: water is polar. Therefore, since CCl4 is non-polar, and CH2Cl2 is polar, and like dissolves like, CH2Cl2 is more soluble.


Why iodine dissolve readily in CCl4?

Iodine dissolves readily in CCl4 due to the presence of London dispersion forces between the iodine molecules and the non-polar CCl4 molecules. These weak intermolecular forces allow for iodine molecules to be dispersed throughout the CCl4 solvent.


Would ccl4 dissolve in h2o?

No it wont because it is non-polar and hence cannot break the hydrogen bonds in water and get dissolved


Is NH3 soluble in CCl4?

it will not dissolve NH3 in poler molecules


Can CCL4 dissolve ionic compounds?

CCl4 is a non polar solvent and therefore dissole ionic compounds


Is ethyl alcohol soluble in CCl4?

No, ethyl alcohol is not soluble in carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) because they are of different polarities. Ethyl alcohol is polar due to its hydroxyl group, while CCl4 is nonpolar. Polar and nonpolar substances do not mix well.


Is carbon tetrachloride polar nonpolar or ionic?

CCl4 is nonpolar.


NaCl is electrovalent but CCl4 is not Why?

Sodium chloride has a polar molecule.


What is more polar NH3 or CCl4 and why?

NH3 is more polar than CCl4. This is because NH3 has a higher electronegativity difference between nitrogen and hydrogen atoms, leading to a greater dipole moment. In contrast, in CCl4, the symmetry of the tetrahedral molecule cancels out the individual dipole moments of the polar C-Cl bonds, resulting in a nonpolar molecule.


Is CCl4 polar or non pollar?

No. The individual bonds are polar, but the molecule as a whole is symmetric and therefore nonpolar.


Why is CCl4 non-polar?

The individual bonds are polar, but they're symmetric so the molecule overall is considered nonpolar.


Is CCl4 an acid?

No, CCl4 (carbon tetrachloride) is not an acid. It is a non-polar covalent compound that does not dissociate in water to release hydronium ions like acids do.
