A tetrahedral molecule with the central atom bonded to four other atoms or molecules that are the same will always be non-polar because the electronegativities of the four bonds cancel each other out. Other molecular shapes that will follow this rule would be linear, trigonal planar, pyramidal, and octahedral. There are a few other molecules that are non-polar but these are the most common
What else can I help you with?
Is POOH'S polar or non polar?
The geometry of PO(OH)3 is tetrahedral with an unsymmetric charge distribution.Therefore this molecule is polar.
Which of these molecules is polar?
Which of these molecules is polar
What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules inoic molecules nonpolar convalent molecules?
ionic molecules dissolve the most. but some polar covalent molecules also do dissolve in water.
What do dipole dipole forces do?
Hold polar molecules together
How do polar and non-polar bonds interact with each other?
Polar molecules reacts with polar molecules and non-polar molecules react with non-polar molecules.
Is Cl3 polar or nonpolar?
CHCl3 is a polar molecule. Its electron and molecular geometries are both tetrahedral, yet the Chlorine atoms are more electronegative than the Hydrogen atom, making the molecule polar.
Is POOH'S polar or non polar?
The geometry of PO(OH)3 is tetrahedral with an unsymmetric charge distribution.Therefore this molecule is polar.
Which of these molecules is polar?
Which of these molecules is polar
Why do oil and water hate each other?
Water is polar while oils are non-polar. Molecules that are polar will mix with other polar molecules, and non-polar molecules will mix with other non-polar molecules. Polar and non-polar molecules will not mix.
What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules inoic molecules nonpolar convalent molecules?
ionic molecules dissolve the most. but some polar covalent molecules also do dissolve in water.
Is SO2Cl2 polar or nonpolar?
SO2Cl2 is polar because the molecule has a bent molecular geometry with a net dipole moment. Thus, the molecule is not symmetrical and has regions of partial positive and negative charge, making it polar overall.
What is the geometric shape of nitrogen molecules and phosphorus molecules having four bonds?
tetrahedral
What do dipole dipole forces do?
Hold polar molecules together
how do you explain what polar molecules are?
Water molecules are polar molecules. Both of the bonds inside the molecule are polar bonds.
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.
How do polar and non-polar bonds interact with each other?
Polar molecules reacts with polar molecules and non-polar molecules react with non-polar molecules.
Are non-polar molecules more attracted to other non-polar molecules or polar molecules?
Non-polar molecules are generally more attracted to other non-polar molecules due to the similar distribution of electronic charge. This attraction is known as London dispersion forces. Polar molecules tend to interact with other polar molecules through stronger dipole-dipole interactions or hydrogen bonding.
