CO2 has polar bonds but is a NON POLAR molecule. Why?
it has an asymmetrical shape
bond polarity or dipole moment between C and O atoms cancel
there is net dipole moment between C and O atoms in molecule
bond polarity does not exist between C+ and O- atoms
Does the following reference Polar, Nonpolar, or both:
"electronegativity values are the same"?
Polar
Nonpolar
Both
