Well an element by definition is not bonded to anything else so strictly speaking the question deos not make sense. However, Nitrogen does not exist as N but as the Molecule N2 and is N- triple bond-N - this is non polar. There are others. Sulfur and Phosphorous exist also as polyatomic molecules and are also non-polar.

What compound contains only nonpolar covalent bonds?

One example of a compound containing only nonpolar covalent bonds is diatomic nitrogen (N2). In this molecule, two nitrogen atoms share electrons equally, resulting in a nonpolar covalent bond.


What is the polarity of iodine?

Iodine is a nonpolar molecule because it contains only nonpolar covalent bonds and symmetrical distribution of electrons.


Is P4 nonpolar?

No, it is not. It only has homoatomic bonds and on top of that it is highly symmetric.


Is I2 an ionic bond?

I2 is a nonpolar covalent because it doesn't have only 2 atoms.


Does a symmetrical molecule always have nonpolar bonds?

No. Hydrogen fluoride is rotationally symmetrical around an axis along the center of its single, very polar bond. However, if a molecule has mirror symmetry in a hypothetical mirror through and perpendicular to its only bond, the bond is nonpolar because the two atoms bonded are atoms of the same element


A covalent bond in which electrons are shared equally is called a what?

The only time that electrons will be shared equally is when the covalent bond is between two atoms of the same element. The reason for this is that electronegativities differ between each element, and if two elements with a covalent bond have different electronegativities then the electrons will be held more strongly by the element with the higher electronegativity.


Is toluene or hexane more nonpolar?

Hexane is more nonpolar than toluene because it is an alkane with only C-H bonds, while toluene has a benzene ring which introduces some polarity due to the presence of pi bonds.


Which of the following compounds should be soluble in CCL4?

Nonpolar compounds should be soluble in CCl4 since it is a nonpolar solvent. Compounds like nonpolar organic compounds or those with only nonpolar covalent bonds tend to be soluble in CCl4.


Can fluorine form a nonpolar covalent bond?

No, fluorine typically forms polar covalent bonds due to its high electronegativity. Fluorine is the most electronegative element on the periodic table, so when it bonds with another element, it attracts electrons towards itself, resulting in a polar covalent bond.


What do you call a substance that only contains one kind of atom?

A substance that only contains one kind of atom is called an element.


What types of elements are involved in a nonpolar bond?

Nonpolar covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms of similar electronegativity. This results in a balanced distribution of electron density, creating a molecule without a significant dipole moment. Common examples include diatomic molecules like O2 and N2.


Is silver organic?

No Silver is an element that contains only silver. In order to be considered organic a substance must be a compound that contains carbon and hydrogen.
