Is the molecule CO carbon monoxide polar or non-polar?
it is polar (inorganic) molecule
Is the element carbon polar or non-polar?
They all are polarized in respect to there neighboring atoms. If alone in the universe then it would be non-polar.
Is CH3COOH polar or non-polar?
Polar because it contains a polar molecule between carbon and oxygen!
Is ClO4 polar or non- polar?
ClO4 is polar.
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.
