O=O
Polarity is determined by the difference in electronegativity (EN) between the bonded atoms. An EN of zero is nonpolar. Since the two oxygen atoms have the same EN, their EN difference is zero, so the bond between them is nonpolar, and oxygen (O2) is a nonpolar molecule.

Is equals C equals a correct bond?
Equals C equals is not a correct bond. In order to create a bond, you will need to have an elemental symbon on either side of the equal sign. C equals C would be a correct bond type.
What is the molar geometry of ChClO?
If you draw out the Lewis Structure you can see that CHClO has a central atom of C with a single bond to H, a single bond to Cl, and a double bond to O. Since C has 4 bonds it is happy with all of its 8 electrons and has no lone pair electrons; therefor there are only 3 forces off of C that we have to worry about. These 3 forces are going to want to push each other away as far as possible. While Cl is going to be stronger than H in pushing force the farthest possible is still going to be trigonal planar geometry, which is a flat 2D triangle, like what you would draw on paper when sketching the Lewis structure. The approximate bond angles in CHClO are therefor going to be 120o (360o/3 = 120o). However, for future reference, the approximate bond angles are only exact when all charge clouds are equivalent. For example, CHClO is trigonal planar with bond angles of approximately 120 degrees, but BCl3 is trigonal planar with bond angles of exactly 120 degrees. Molecules that contain a lone pair on the central atom show even more distortion in the bond angles.
Is it possible for a compound that contains polar bonds to be a non polar compound?
Yes, it is.A compound is non-polar if there is no net dipole.This can be achieved through one of the following:It has no polar bonds orThe shape of the molecule is such that the dipoles created cancel out.This means that a compound with polar bonds must have a symmetrical shape in order for it to be non-polar.Take CCl4 (carbon tetrachloride). The C-Cl bond is polar, however, the shape of the molecule is tetrahedral - it is symmetrical and so dipoles cancel out. Therefore, it is non-polar.
How the hybridization of c atoms in c-c single bond of HC---C-CH--CH2 is sp3-sp?
The compound HCCCHCH2 contains a triple bond and a double bond. Working along the molecule left to right the hybridisation of the carbon atoms is:-sp ;sp ; sp2 ; sp2The formula for a 4 carbon chain containing an sp3 - sp single bond would beHCCCH2CH3where the hybridisation left to right issp ; sp ; sp3 ; sp3
What ordered pair locates point c?
They are its coordinates in the Cartesian plane.
Is cf3cl polar?
CF3Cl is a polar molecule. There are three C-F polar bond and and C-Cl polar bond. The bond dipoles do not cancel out and hence the compound is a polar molcule.
Is cf3cl polar or nonpolar?
CF3Cl is a polar molecule. There are 3 C-F polar bond and 1 C-Cl polar bond. Since the difference in electronegative between C and F is not the same as that of C and Cl, therefore their bond polarities are not the same which results in the compound is a polar molcule.
Is C - 0 a non polar covalent bond?
carbon-oxygen bond is polar covalent bond
Is vitamin e polar or non polar?
Vitamin A is polar, and vitamin C is as well. Polar molecules interact through dipole, dipole intermolecular forces and hydrogen bonds.
Is ether a polar substance?
Polar. the C-O bond are polar
Can a compound be non-polar if it contains only 1 polar bond?
Not really. The closest thing would be molecules with long hydrocarbon chains such as decanal (C10H20O) with the C-O bond being polar. The carbon-hydrogen bonds are technically polar as well, but this polarity is very weak.
What bond does carbohydrates have?
Carbohydrates are joined by a glycosidic linkage, which is a covalent bond that formed between two carbohydrate molecules by dehydration synthesis.
What kind of covalent bond is formed with two nonmetals?
It can be either a polar covalent bond or a nonpolar covalent bond. C-Cl is an example of a polar covalent bond, while C-C is a good example of a nonpolar covalent bond.
What is the polar covalent bond of C-H?
The covalent bond between carbon and hydrogen is NON-POLAR.
How is the difference between polar and non polar related to electronegative?
What creates dipole moments in polar molecules is dependent in the length of the bond, the size of the atoms, and the electronegativity of the atoms, for example the C-Cl bond is much more polar than the C-N bond because Cl is more electronegative. Do keep in mind though that if the molecule is symmetrical the dipole moments can cancel out to become 0. Hope this answers your question.
How do organic compounds have a polar-covalent bond?
Organic molecules that contain atoms with a higher/lower electronegativity than C will contain polar covalent bonds. Obvious examples are molecules with O atoms e.g. alcohols, ketones, ethers.
What distinguish between polar and non polar dielectrics?
b c polar molecules are easily soluable in water thanthe non polar molecules
