Cinnamon is a mixture of various compounds, some of which are polar (such as cinnamaldehyde) and some are nonpolar (such as cinnamyl alcohol). Overall, cinnamon can be considered to exhibit both polar and nonpolar properties.
Cinnamon is 90% cinnamaldehyde. Cinnamaldehyde is an aldehyde and the carbonyl oxygen has significant electron withdrawing potential. So, it is polar. Link below to an electronic potential map of the molecule

nonpolar. The fat molecules in peanut butter are nonpolar, that is why peanut butter doesn't evenly mix with water, a polar substance.
Polar substances dissolve other polar substances, and nonpolar substances dissolve other nonpolar substances. A polar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance and a nonpolar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance.
The shape is trigonal bipyramidal and all the atoms on the outside are the same so the charges cancel eachother. Nonpolar
