C=O bonds are polar, but polarity is the uneven distribution of charge ACROSS A MOLECULE, when there is one side slightly negative, and then the other side is slightly negative, the whole molecule is slightly negative, so it's not polar. In other words, the centre of the negative charge is in the same place as the centre of positive charge, and they cancel each other out.
Same story for CCl4, even tho it's not linear, the chlorines are mirror imaged on the other side of the carbon, just like the oxygen is mirror imaged on the other side of the carbon in CO2. The charges are cancelled out, same story for both molecules.
No, Mg3N2 does not contain nonpolar bonds. The bond between magnesium and nitrogen in Mg3N2 is ionic, not covalent, resulting in polar bonds due to the electronegativity difference between the two elements.
Molecules with many polar bonds are soluble in polar solvents.Also, molecules with none or few polar bonds (many non-polar bonds) are soluble in non-polar solvent. e.g Water is a polar solvent so substances with many polar bonds are soluble in it.
Polar bonds have more energy in chemical reactions compared to nonpolar bonds.
Lipids are held together by non polar bonds but also have a few polar bonds between carbon and oxygen. But because the rest of a lipid molecule is nonpolar this contributes little to physical properties.
No, NH3 does not contain a nonpolar covalent bond. The bonds in NH3, which are between nitrogen and hydrogen atoms, are polar covalent because nitrogen is more electronegative than hydrogen, causing an uneven distribution of electrons.
P4: Nonpolar covalent bonds. H2S: Polar covalent bonds. NO2: Polar covalent bonds. S2Cl2: Nonpolar covalent bonds.
Yes, a molecule can be nonpolar when it contains polar covalent bonds, because think about it. if the molecule is linear in structure, and it has two equally polar bonds on either side, then the polarity will essentially cancel out, and it will become nonpolar.

The two types of covalent bonds are polar covalent bonds and nonpolar covalent bonds. Polar covalent bonds occur when the atoms share electrons unequally, leading to a slight charge separation. Nonpolar covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons equally.
Oxygen is an element, not a bond. It will form polar bonds with most other elements, though because it is very electronegative. However, when it bonds with itself as in O2 the bonds are nonpolar.
Fe2O3 (iron oxide) is a nonpolar molecule because it has a symmetrical arrangement of its polar covalent bonds. The dipole moments in these bonds cancel each other out, resulting in a nonpolar overall molecule.
Yes it can
Polar arrangements are associated with polar covalent bonds, where electrons are unequally shared between atoms. Nonpolar arrangements are associated with nonpolar covalent bonds, where electrons are shared equally between atoms.
