No, a polar molecule is one that has an uneven distribution of electrons, resulting in regions of partial positive and negative charge. This can occur at any temperature, not just low temperatures.

Is it true that a polar molecule is one that exists only at low temperatures?

No, a polar molecule is one that has a positive and a negative end due to an uneven distribution of electrons. This polarity can exist at any temperature, not limited to low temperatures.


Why does a polar molecule dissolve anything?

It doesn't. Only other polar molecules.


Is water the only molecule that is polar?

No, water is not the only molecule that is polar. Other examples of polar molecules include ammonia (NH3), hydrogen fluoride (HF), and hydrogen chloride (HCl). These molecules have an uneven distribution of charge, causing a separation of positive and negative regions.


Is CH2O not soluble in water?

yes it is becasue water is a polar molecule and therefore, can only disolve another polar molecule such as ch2o


What is an example of an atom that only exists in its molecular form?

An example of an atom that only exists in its molecular form would be oxygen. It is most commonly found as an O2 molecule.


Is o-c polar or non polar?

The central oxygen is positively charged, and the molecule is bent at an angle, so it is polar. Since the entire molecule has only oxygens, all bonding is covalent.


What is true about a molecule which contains two polar bonds which have the different degrees of polarity will it always be polar or never be polar or only be polar if it is bent?

A molecule with two polar bonds of different polarities can still be polar if the individual bond dipoles do not cancel each other out. The overall polarity of the molecule depends on its geometry and symmetry. If the molecule is linear, it will not be polar regardless of the differing bond polarities. If it is bent or asymmetrical, it will be polar.


Is the cholesterol molecule mostly non polar or polar and why?

It is MOSTLY non polar because it has 27 carbons arranged in several ring structures, and a side chain. This makes it non polar. The only polar parts of the molecule is an -OH group on one of the ring structures.


How do you account for the observed solubility of naphthalene and sodium chloride in water and ether based on the nature of the bonds that exist in them?

The reason why naphthalene can be dissolve in ether and not in water is because of their polarity. Naphthalene is a non-polar molecule. so it can only dissolve with a non-polar molecule.


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.


Are sugars non polar Molecules?

No, sugars are polar molecules considering that they will interact and dissolve in water (which is also a polar molecule). Polar molecules will only interact with other polar molecules and vice-versa.


What determines if a molecule is polar nonpolar or ionic?

The two factors are 1) the polarity of the bonds between the atoms in the molecule, and 2) the shape of the molecule. Basically, if the bonds are non-polar, the molecule is. If the bonds are polar, but the molecule is in such a shape that they cancel each other, the molecule is non-polar. If the bonds are polar and the molecule's shape doesn't cause them to cancel, the molecule is polar.
