Non polar because C2H4 (ethene) is a flat, symmetrical molecule, formed like this:

B.t.w. Ethylene is an old, non-official name for this C2-alkene.

Is C2H4 non polar?

CH2 does not exist on its own and polarity is generally only considered in respect of neutral moelcules.


What is the monomer use to make polythene?

This monomer is ethene (or ethylene) - C2H4.


How many grams of ethylene are needed to react with 0.132 mol of H20?

C2H4 + H2O --> C2H5OHReaction balanced at 1:1:1 mole of each compound, so you'll need 0.132 mol C2H4 and this is equal to:0.132 (mol C2H4) * 28 (g/mol C2H4) = 3.696 g C2H4 = 3.70 g C2H4


What is the formula for ethylene?

CH2CH. It's classified as either a terminal alkene (unstable) or a vinyl group.


What is C2H4 the molecular formula for?

Is ethoxyethane polar?

No, like other hydrocarbons ethane is nonpolar.


Is ethene polar?

As ethene is symmitrical molecule and have carbon atoms involved in double bond, therefore it is non polar.


Which is more reactive c2h4 or c2h6?

Ethylene (C2H4) is more reactive than ethane (C2H6) due to the presence of a pi bond in ethylene. The pi bond makes ethylene more susceptible to addition reactions with other molecules, while ethane lacks this double bond and is comparatively less reactive.


Which molecule contains a sp2sp2 sigma bond out of CH4 C2H6 C2H4 and C2H2?

C2H4 (ethylene) contains a sp2-sp2 sigma bond. In ethylene, each carbon atom is sp2 hybridized, forming a sigma bond between them.


Chemical symbol for ethene?

How many atoms are there in a molecule of ethylene?

Ethylene (C2H4) has two carbons and four hydrogens making 6 atoms.


Is ethylene glycol molecule polar or non- polar?

Ethylene glycol molecule is polar due to the presence of hydroxyl groups which create an uneven distribution of charge within the molecule.
