No! There are many others, including in particular the completely nonpolar diatomic molecules of the elements H, N, O, F, Cl, Br, and I.

Why is ammonia more soluble than carbon tetrachloride?
polar and non polar
What type of bond ionic or molecular and polar or non polar is sodium iodide and carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas?
Sodium iodide has ionic bonds, which are always polar. Carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas both have molecular (covalent) bonds; the ones in carbon dioxide are polar and those in elemental hydrogen molecules (H2) are nonpolar.
Which is most soluble in water potassium nitrate or carbon tetrachloride?
Almost all the nitrates are soluble in water including potassium nitrate, but carbon tetrachloride is an organic non polar liquid so it is not soluble in water.
What solvent would carbon tetrachloride be more soluble?
It does not make sense to ask what solvent would be more soluble. Solutes are soluble in solvents. In any event, carbon tetrachloride is a very potent solvent of non-polar chemicals.
Does carbon dioxide contain a polar or non-polar bond?
The carbon-oxygen bond is a polar bond, but because they are exactly opposed to each other, the molecule is overall non-polar.
Will sodium chloride dissolves in carbon tetrachloride?
NaCl will not dissolve in CCl4 is a polar molecule and polar molecule will only dissolve other polar molecules. As the same goes for non polar molecules.
What molecules possesses polar bonds but is not polar methane sodium chloride carbon dioxide water?
Carbon dioxide
Both carbon dioxide molecules and water molecules have polar bonds?
No. Because of it's symmetry carbon dioxide is nonpolar.FalseLove, Nessa
What hapens to potassium nitrate when dissolved in carbon tetrachloride?
Potassium nitrate is polar, while carbon tetrachloride is non polar. So there will be a layer of potassium nitrate and a layer of carbon tetrachloride, which will not mingle with one another.
Is carbon tetrachloride or chloroform more polar?
CCl4 is not polar. But CHCl3 is polar.
Why is ammonia more soluble than carbon tetrachloride?
polar and non polar
Is carbon tetrachloride polar nonpolar or ionic?
CCl4 is nonpolar.
Why are carbon tetrachloride is miscisble in water?
Water is a polar solvent and carbon tetrachloride is a non polar compound. The London forces between these two species are not strong enough to keep them mixed.
Is carbon ionic or polar covalent or non polar?
To determine polarity first you check the polarity then the molecular geometry. CCl, is polar because of the difference in electronegativity between C and Cl and is polar However, carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), is planar, so the electrons are evenly distributed and the molecule is nonpolar
Which substances passes most readily into a cell ions large molecules glucose carbon dioxide or polar molecules?
Ions
What type of bond ionic or molecular and polar or non polar is sodium iodide and carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas?
Sodium iodide has ionic bonds, which are always polar. Carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas both have molecular (covalent) bonds; the ones in carbon dioxide are polar and those in elemental hydrogen molecules (H2) are nonpolar.
Why will ethanol dissolve in water but carbon tetrachloride will not?
Ethanol is polar, and so is water. "Like dissolves like," so those two liquids will be miscible, meaning they will dissolve each other. Carbon tetrachloride, meanwhile, is non-polar. Its intermolecular forces are incompatible with water's, so polar water will not be able to dissolve it.
