What else can I help you with?
Is CF4 ionic or polar covalent or non polar?
CF4 is a nonpolar covalent compound. Due to the symmetrical tetrahedral arrangement of the four fluorine atoms around the central carbon atom, the dipole moments cancel each other out, resulting in a molecule that has no overall dipole moment.
Is CF4 a polar or nonpolar molecule?
no its not polar because when we draw the lewis diagram of c2f4 it is symetrical so the positive and negative charges cancel each other out. so it is the same case as co2..... hope this helped. sry for bad communication. i wrote it pretty fast.....
Are the bonds in CF4 polar or non polar?
The bonds in CF4 are polar due to the difference in electronegativity between carbon and fluorine. However, the molecule as a whole is nonpolar because the dipole moments of the polar bonds cancel each other out.
Is xenon tetrafluoride polar?
No. Carbon tetrafuoride is a non polar molecule but with polar covalents bonds. the polar covalent bonds sort of cancel each other out on each opposite side (because of it's symmetry) making it non polar overall. (CF4 is tetrahedral)
Consider the following and determine if they are polar H3O plus PCl5 H2S and CF4?
H3O+- polar,asymmetrical (hydronium cation) PCl5 - polar asymmetrical (phosphorus pentachloride) H2S - polar, symmetrical (hydrogen sulfide) CF4 - polar symmetrical (carbon tetrafluoride)
Is cf4 soluble?
CF4 is practically insoluble in water because it is a highly nonpolar molecule with only weak dispersion forces. This means it does not interact well with the polar water molecules, resulting in low solubility.
Is charcoal polar or non polar?
non-polar
Is testosterone polar or non polar?
It is non polar.
What does non polar and polar mean?
Polar contains polar. Non-polar contains nothing.
Is ClO4 polar or non- polar?
ClO4 is polar.
Is C3H6Br2 polar or non polar?
Nonpolar
How can a molecule such as CF4 have an electronegativity difference greater than or equal to 0.4 and still be considered non-polar?
This has to do with the actual shape of CF4. Cf4 takes the shap of a carbon surrounded by 4 flourines. The 4 flourines are evenly spaced and opposite of eachother.Each florine is more electrongative than the carbon and tend to attract electrons more than the carbom giving the florines a negative charge. In most situations this would lead to the molecule being polar but remember! The florines are opposite of eachother. Since all of the florines are negatively charged, and there are florines are on all sides of the carbon, all sides of the carbon are equally negatively charged leading to the molecule being non polar.Though, the molecule has positive and negative atoms the negative atoms aren't all on one side meaning that their are no definite poles.Basically, the Molecule is force canceling.....................-..........- + -..........-.....................
