A molecule is polar is a result of differences in electronegativity; that is, one atom has a stronger pull on electrons than another. Flourine (F) is more electronegative than chlorine (Cl), and so tends to pull electrons to its side of the molecule. This makes FCl polar.
F2 consists of two atoms of fluorine, which are identical and thus have the same electronegativity. Therefore, the molecule is nonpolar.

Is f2 ionic molecule?
no. it is a non-polar covalent molecule
Is F2 classified as a polar covalent?
No, fluorine F2 is a homonuclear molecule so there is no difference in electronegativity. This means that fluorine is a nonpolar compound.
Is fluoride gas is a covalent compound?
Non polar covalent bond between two fluorine gas in F2.
Does F2 have polar bonds?
No, since it only consists of one element it is nonpolar.
What type of bond does F2 form?
The Lewis structure of gaseous fluorine shows that each fluorine atom contributes one electron to share between them. This makes a single covalent bond.
Is f2 ionic molecule?
no. it is a non-polar covalent molecule
Is F2 classified as a polar covalent?
No, fluorine F2 is a homonuclear molecule so there is no difference in electronegativity. This means that fluorine is a nonpolar compound.
What is the difference between LCL-LCL FCL-FCL and FCL-LCL?
LCL and FCL are terms used in overseas shipping of cargo. They can also be used to refer to shipments transported by train. LCL is "less than container load" and FCL is "full container load" in overseas shipping. When transporting by train, LCL is "less than car load" and FCL is "full car load." Cargo can be shipped LCL or FCL.
What does 20 fcl mean?
FCL means "Full Container Load". Whereas 20 FCL means, 20 full containers quantity.
Which has bonds that are most polar SCl2 F2 CS2 CF4 BrCl?
SCl2
How much quantity 5 x 20 fcl?
125 Mt is 5 FCL
Is oxygen difluoride polar or non polar?
F2 is non polar. Diatomic molecules composed of two of the same elements are always non-polar. Examples are O2 H2 Cl2 and N2.Nonpolar. No element on its own is polar.
What is fcl container?
Olive oil
Is fluoride gas is a covalent compound?
Non polar covalent bond between two fluorine gas in F2.
What is he meaning of FCL?
Not enough info (in Relation to What)
Is F-F ionic or covalent bond?
The F-F bond (in F2) is covalent, and non polar covalent at that.
What is the meaning of FCL in sea shipment?
The term FCL in a sea shipment stands for a Full Container Load. The term LCL stands for Less Container Load.
